I'd like to see that ifdef go away, as discussed. I agree that just
#define pci_sriov_configure_simple NULL
should suffice. As Christoph points out, it's not going to compile if
people try to just invoke it directly.

I'd also *really* like to see a way to enable this for PFs which don't
have (and don't need) a driver. We seem to have lost that along the
way.
Actually the suggestion I had from Don Dutile was that we should be
looking at creating a pci-stub like driver specifically for those type
of devices, but without the ability to arbitrarily assign devices.
Basically we have to white-list it in one device at a time for those
kind of things.

If you have the device ID of the thing you wanted to have work with
pci-stub before I could look at putting together a quick driver and
adding it to this set.

Thanks.
