[Intel-wired-lan] [PATCH] ixgbe: Add locking to prevent panic when setting sriov_numvfs to zero.

It is possible to disable VFs while the PF driver is processing requests
from the VF driver.  This can result in a panic.

This can be eventually be reproduced with the following script:

while :
do
	echo 63 > /sys/class/net/ens3f0/device/sriov_numvfs
	sleep 1
	echo 0 > /sys/class/net/ens3f0/device/sriov_numvfs
        sleep 1
done
