Some latest QC based modems seem not to properly accept altsetting
toggling in cdc_ncm_bind_common, making them to fail. The workaround
was to introduce an empirically decided pause to avoid the failure.

This patch introduces a different approach: for MBIM devices, instead
of toggling interfaces, the MBIM class-specific request code
RESET_FUNCTION is used in order to reset the function to its initial
state, removing the need for the pause.

Patch has been tested with a few Telit QC and Intel based MBIM modems.

Patch has also been tested with an Intel NCM based device, for
regression checking.
