[PATCH] net/iavf: ensure no polling during VF initiated reset

[Ciara Loftus]

Ensure that the datapath functions will not poll during a vf initiated
reset. Otherwise the datapath could access freed resources and cause a
core dump. Achieve this by ensuring that the no-poll-on-link-down devarg
is set when trying to reinit a started device. If it's not set, suggest
stopping the port before the reinit.
