Rasesh Mody eb35c732fe net/qede/base: fix for VF malicious indication
IOV regression testing led to discovery of a minor issue + possibly race
in IOV flows:
 a. Malicious indications in VF-database on PF-side get cleared during
    FLR flows - but not when disabling SRIOV. At least in Linux if you
    disable IOV while having a malicious VF you wouldn't be able to
    clear the indication as driver would prevent from initializing it.
 b. Possible race during PF response to VF - the channel is made ready
    only after sending the rc via dmae to VF. It's possible due to
    context switch at end of DMAE [when releasing Mutex] that VF would
    start running and send another message prior to PF clearing the
    channel, making the FW consider that VF to be malicious.

This patch fixes that by
 - clearing the indication even if we're only going to disable VF
 - resetting the channel to ready before PF copies the rc to the VF, PF
   can then continue and send an additional message

Fixes: 86a2265e59 ("qede: add SRIOV support")
