scsi: st: Add MTIOCGET and MTLOAD to ioctls allowed after device reset

[ Upstream commit 0b120edb37dc9dd8ca82893d386922eb6b16f860 ]

Most drives rewind the tape when the device is reset. Reading and writing
are not allowed until something is done to make the tape position match the
user's expectation (e.g., rewind the tape). Add MTIOCGET and MTLOAD to
operations allowed after reset. MTIOCGET is modified to not touch the tape
if pos_unknown is non-zero. The tape location is known after MTLOAD.
