PCI: Protect pci_error_handlers->reset_notify() usage with device_lock()



Every method in struct device_driver or structures derived from it like
struct pci_driver MUST provide exclusion vs the driver's ->remove() method,
usually by using device_lock().

Protect use of pci_error_handlers->reset_notify() by holding the device
lock while calling it.

Note:

  - pci_dev_lock() calls device_lock() in addition to blocking user-space
    config accesses.

  - pci_err_handlers->reset_notify() is used inside
    pci_dev_save_and_disable() and pci_dev_restore().  We could hold the
    device lock directly in pci_reset_notify(), but we expand the region
    since we have several calls following each other.

Without this, ->reset_notify() may race with ->remove() calls, which can be
easily triggered in NVMe.
