Because pci_iov_set_numvfs will end up resetting offset and stride based 
on the values when it writes the 0 into numvfs.  As such testing it 
after the reset could give you invalid values since offset and stride 
can be 0 when numvfs is 0.

Actually maybe I will go over this and submit a couple patches myself.  
Looking over things it seems like the code has gotten a bit silly since 
virtfn_max_busses looks like it is iterating over VFs and that doesn't 
make much sense when offset and stride are both positive values so it 
should just be a matter of computing the bus of the last VF.
