ice: reset first in crash dump kernels

When the system boots into the crash dump kernel after a panic, the ice
networking device may still have pending transactions that can cause errors
or machine checks when the device is re-enabled. This can prevent the crash
dump kernel from loading the driver or collecting the crash data.

To avoid this issue, perform a function level reset (FLR) on the ice device
via PCIe config space before enabling it on the crash kernel. This will
clear any outstanding transactions and stop all queues and interrupts.
Restore the config space after the FLR, otherwise it was found in testing
that the driver wouldn't load successfully.

The following sequence causes the original issue:
- Load the ice driver with modprobe ice
- Enable SR-IOV with 2 VFs: echo 2 > /sys/class/net/eth0/device/sriov_num_vfs
- Trigger a crash with echo c > /proc/sysrq-trigger
- Load the ice driver again (or let it load automatically) with modprobe ice
- The system crashes again during pcim_enable_device()
