Good catch, this sanity check is to make sure that XDP is being enabled on main
VSI of PF, not for example the VSI dedicated for Flow Director management
(I40E_VSI_FDIR). Besides that, vsi->type != I40E_VSI_MAIN doesn't yield the
I40E_VSI_SRIOV type.

So it would be better to have an error message like "XDP is not allowed on VSIs
other than main VSI".

Thoughts?
