As noted in previous version, why do we need the might_sleep() above
when the core code below includes it and there's nothing above that
might sleep before that?  Thanks,

This is used to mention vfio_pci_core_sriov_configure might sleep.

If this is redundant, can you please remove this one line upon merge ?
