From: Miao Li <limiao@kylinos.cn>

when connecting Fuji Xerox DocuPrint P475 AP printer(which vid:pid is
0550:020e) to Huawei hisi platform and do reboot test for 500 cycles,
usblp probe function executed successfully but there is a small
chance it might not work, we can reset the device at probe to deal
with the problem.

This feels very very wrong.  Why must a driver tell the device to reset
itself?  How does it pass any Windows USB validation without such a
"reset"?  Why does it require this?

Are you sure this isn't a bug in the host controller logic instead?
