Subject: [Intel-wired-lan] [PATCH V2] ixgbe: Save VF info and take references
Save VF device pointers and take references to speed accesses used to monitor the device behavior to avoid slot resets. The saved information avoids lock contention during the search used to access each of the VFs.

Changes in V2:
- Added check for a status register of 0xffff as suggested by Don Dutile
