[PATCH] pci/sriov: Add an option to probe VFs or not before enabling SR-IOV

From: Bodong Wang <bodong@mellanox.com>

Sometimes it is not desirable to probe the virtual functions after
SRIOV is enabled. This can save host side resource usage by VF
instances which would be eventually probed to VMs.

Added a new PCI sysfs interface "sriov_probe_vfs" to control that
from PF, all current callers still retain the same functionality.
To modify it, echo 0/n/N (disable probe) or 1/y/Y (enable probe) to

/sys/bus/pci/devices/<DOMAIN:BUS:DEVICE.FUNCTION>/sriov_probe_vfs

Note that, the choice must be made before enabling VFs. The change
will not take effect if VFs are already enabled. Simply, one can set
sriov_numvfs to 0, choose whether to probe or not, and then resume
sriov_numvfs.
