I'm not sure intel-wired-lan is the proper place to be reviewing this
patch since I don't believe any of us have much background on what is
being worked on here. That In addition to the lack of description
about this virtio device that can implement SR-IOV is problematic. We
may want to discuss this off list in order to figure out who the
proper reviewers would be and where we might want to send this as an
RFC.

A virtio device is normally defined by a Specification. The latest
released one I am aware of is 1.0. I can't find any reference there of
supporting SR-IOV. I'm just wondering if this is a part of the newer
1.1 specification that is being worked on or is outside of the spec?
If it is outside spec I don't know if it could really be accepted
since the device wouldn't really be virtio at that point.

So this looks a lot like the old ixgbe code for SR-IOV, however I
don't see any spots where you might try to clean up the devices on
unloading the driver. Leaving the VFs floating around would be an
issue.

Also I don't see any management interface defined here for how you
would set things like the VF MAC address. How is that being handled?
