The enable_remote_dev_reset devlink param flags that the host admin
allows device resets that can be initiated by other hosts. This
parameter is useful for setups where a device is shared by different
hosts, such as multi-host setup. Once the user set this parameter to
false, the driver should NACK any attempt to reset the device while the
driver is loaded.
