The reprobe needs to be called multiple times for vfio devices for each
device in the iommu group in future patch. So split the reprobe into a
new function. No functional change.

Seems safe, but is this really what we want to do? I haven't read/understood the remaining patches yet, but this makes it sound like what is going to happen is that all of the devices will be unbound from vfio-pci immediately, so they are "in limbo", and will then be reprobed once all devices are unused (and therefore unbound from vfio-pci).

I think that may be a bit dangerous. Instead, we should leave the devices bound to vfio-pci until all of them are unused, and at that time, we should unbind them all from vfio-pci, then reprobe them all. (again, I may have misunderstood the direction, if so ignore this).

If I am misunderstanding, and unbinding from vfio-pci will also be delayed until all devices are unused, then ACK.
