net: usb: ax88179_178a: fix link status when link is set to down/up
commit ecf848e upstream.
The idea was to keep only one reset at initialization stage in order to
reduce the total delay, or the reset from usbnet_probe or the reset from
usbnet_open.
I have seen that restarting from usbnet_probe is necessary to avoid doing
too complex things. But when the link is set to down/up (for example to
configure a different mac address) the link is not correctly recovered
unless a reset is commanded from usbnet_open.
So, detect the initialization stage (first call) to not reset from
usbnet_open after the reset from usbnet_probe and after this stage, always
reset from usbnet_open too (when the link needs to be rechecked).
Apply to all the possible devices, the behavior now is going to be the same.
