Better something like "reinit" in the name maybe?

I would have probably separated this change into a separate patch, as changes
above were more or less just refactoring, whereas this one changes behaviour.

And like my comment in the previous patch, I wonder whether that call comes
too late. Keep in mind there are e.g. audio devices where you can't change
certain parameters. So not every error here is a fatal error.
