net: wwan: iosm: Fix hibernation by re-binding the driver around it
Currently, the driver is seriously broken with respect to the
hibernation (S4): after image restore the device is back into
IPC_MEM_EXEC_STAGE_BOOT (which AFAIK means bootloader stage) and needs
full re-launch of the rest of its firmware, but the driver restore
handler treats the device as merely sleeping and just sends it a
wake-up command.
This wake-up command times out but device nodes (/dev/wwan*) remain
accessible.
However attempting to use them causes the bootloader to crash and
enter IPC_MEM_EXEC_STAGE_CD_READY stage (which apparently means "a crash
dump is ready").
It seems that the device cannot be re-initialized from this crashed
stage without toggling some reset pin (on my test platform that's
apparently what the device _RST ACPI method does).
While it would theoretically be possible to rewrite the driver to tear
down the whole MUX / IPC layers on hibernation (so the bootloader does
not crash from improper access) and then re-launch the device on
restore this would require significant refactoring of the driver
(believe me, I've tried), since there are quite a few assumptions
hard-coded in the driver about the device never being partially
de-initialized (like channels other than devlink cannot be closed,
for example).
Probably this would also need some programming guide for this hardware.
Considering that the driver seems orphaned [1] and other people are
hitting this issue too [2] fix it by simply unbinding the PCI driver
before hibernation and re-binding it after restore, much like
USB_QUIRK_RESET_RESUME does for USB devices that exhibit a similar
problem.
Tested on XMM7360 in HP EliteBook 855 G7 both with s2idle (which uses
the existing suspend / resume handlers) and S4 (which uses the new code).
