On device shutdown/removal, virtio drivers need to trigger a reset on the device; if this is neglected, the virtio core will complain about non-zero device status. This patch resets the status when the 9p virtio driver is removed from the system by calling vdev->config->reset on the virtio_device to send a reset to the host virtio device.
