* Test whether all the affected devices can be reset by the
* user.
*
* Resetting an unused device (not opened) is safe, because
* dev_set->lock is held in hot reset path so this device
* cannot race being opened by another user simultaneously.
*
* Otherwise all opened devices in the dev_set must be
* contained by the set of groups provided by the user.
