drm/i915/gt: Scrub HW state on remove



Currently we do a final scrub of the HW state upon release. However,
when rebinding the device, this is too late as the device may either
have been partially rebound or the device is no longer accessible. If
the device has been removed before release, the reset goes astray
leaving the device in an inconsistent state, unlikely to work without a
full PCI reset. Furthermore, if the device is partially rebound before
the HW scrubbing, there may be leftover HW state that should have been
scrubbed. Either way, we need to push the scrubbing earlier before the
removal, so into unregister. The danger is that on older machines,
resetting the GPU also impact the display engine and so the reset should
be after modesetting is disabled (and before reuse we need to recover
modesetting).
