While it's true that the busy bit isn't cleared on reset, it should be
cleaned up the next time you open a database.
There's a check in DmOpenDatabase to see if the database was still marked
as open from a previous life. If it is, it's assumed that it didn't close
because of a reset, and DmResetRecordStates is called, which clears the
busy bits.
Is there some problem that arises because the bits aren't cleared until the
database opens?
