Chip outputs are enabled[1] before actual reset is performed[2] which 
might cause pin output value to flip flop if previous pin value was set 
to 1 in chip. Change fixes that behavior by making sure chip is fully 
reset before all outputs are enabled.

Flip-flop can be noticed when module is removed and inserted again and 
one of the pins was changed to 1 before removal. 100 microsecond 
flipping is noticeable on oscilloscope (100khz SPI bus).

For a properly reset chip - output is enabled around 100 microseconds 
(on 100khz SPI bus) later during probing process hence should be 
irrelevant behavioral change.
