> Example from a XXV710 NIC.
> Before:
> $ ip link set ens3f0 vf 0 state auto
> $  ethtool enp8s2 | grep Speed
>         Speed: 25000Mb/s
> $ ip link set ens3f0 vf 0 state enable
> $ ethtool enp8s2 | grep Speed
>         Speed: 40000Mb/s
> After:
> $ ip link set ens3f0 vf 0 state auto
> $  ethtool enp8s2 | grep Speed
>         Speed: 25000Mb/s
> $ ip link set ens3f0 vf 0 state enable
> $ ethtool enp8s2 | grep Speed
>         Speed: 25000Mb/s
