But as the code currently stands, config() is only called when a device
reset is detected, not during initialization. So if there's platform
specific configuration data that needs to be written to a function, it
won't get written until after a device reset occurs, which might never
happen. So either we need to write that data (or call config()) in each
function's probe(), or in rmi_function_probe().
