Hi Riana,

I do think we can achieve the same functionality with module param and
we needn't reload the driver
if we are doing unbind, Since the driver will be loaded event after
unbind we can modify the module param
and once we bind the device back it can check if the BDF belongs to this
driver instance and configure the mode accordingly.

Thanks,
Aravind.
