[PATCH net-next V2 5/8] net/mlx4_core: Do not reset module-parameter num_vfs when fail to enable sriov

From: Or Gerlitz <hidden>

Subsystem: mellanox mlx4 core vpi driver, networking drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Tariq Toukan, Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

From: Jack Morgenstein <redacted>

Consider the following scenario: 2 HCAs, where only one of which can run SRIOV.

If we reset the module parameter, all the VFs of the SRIOV HCA will be
claimed by the PPF host (-- the code relies on num_vfs being non-zero
to avoid this claiming, and num_vfs was reset when pci_enable_sriov failed
for the non-SRIOV HCA).

The solution is not to touch the num_vfs parameter.

Also, eliminate the unneeded check of num_vfs when disabling sriov
(the dev flag bit is sufficient).
