This pattern of "unlock, do something, relock" needs some
justification.  In general it's unsafe because the lock is protecting
*something*, and you have to assume that something can change as soon
as you unlock.  Maybe you know it's safe in this situation, and if so,
the explanation of why it's safe is what I'm looking for.

Also, you're now calling pci_reset_bridge_secondary_bus() with the dev
unlocked, where we called it with the dev locked before.  Some (but
worryingly, not all) of the other pci_reset_bridge_secondary_bus()
callers also have the dev locked.  I didn't look long enough to figure
out if there is a strategy there or if these inconsistencies are
latent bugs.
