Thanks for reporting this issue!
But the complete fix should also not use "goto failed".
Instead, please create a new "goto skip_vfs" so it will skip 
the log of "Failed err=".

This function is called to enable SR-IOV when available,
not enabling interfaces without VFs was a regression.

Is this really desirable?
It is a debug print not enabled by default,
and trying to enable SR-IOV did fail.
