In fact, the .dev_close is close to .dev_reset.
static int
iavf_dev_reset(struct rte_eth_dev *dev)
{
int ret;
ret = iavf_dev_uninit(dev); --> iavf_dev_close
if (ret)
return ret;
return iavf_dev_init(dev);
}

From this point of view, correct. ;-)
Now I changed the vf_reset handling as bellow, if bus master failed, the
device will still be in VF reset state, so that other modules will return
immediately (the PMD has considered the VF reset state already).
if (vf->vf_reset &&
!rte_pci_set_bus_master(pci_dev, true))
vf->vf_reset = false;
