Subject: [PATCH net v2 1/9] ibmvnic: handle inconsistent login with reset

Inconsistent login with the vnicserver is causing the device to be
removed. This does not give the device a chance to recover from error
state. This patch schedules a FATAL reset instead to bring the adapter
up.

Fixes: 032c5e82847a2 ("Driver for IBM System i/p VNIC protocol")
