I don't have a strong opinion on combining the declarations to one line,
and I would apply it if you wanted to do the same for the whole file
at once, in a patch by itself.

But I don't agree that this is easier to read.  I suppose it could be
a tiny bit more efficient, but I think the benefit to the reader of
the usual "for (i = 0; i < limit; i++)" loop is larger.

I do like the change to remove devices in the reverse order as we
added them.  But I'm really partial to the way a "for" loop keeps all
the loop control in one spot.  So I would apply a patch that made it
look like this:

  for (i = iov->num_VFs - 1; i >= 0; i--)
    virtfn_remove(dev, i, 0);
