Subject: [PATCH 0/4] move pci_assivned_vfs() check (while disabling VFs) to pci sub-system

A user must not be allowed to disable VFs while they are already assigned to
a guest. This check is being made in each individual driver that implements
the sriov_configure PCI method.
This patch-set fixes this code duplication by moving this check from
drivers to the sriov_nuvfs_store() routine just before invoking
sriov_configure() when num_vfs is equal to 0.

Vasundhara Volam (4):
  pci: move pci_assivned_vfs() check while disabling VFs to pci
    sub-system
  bnx2x: remove pci_assigned_vfs() check while disabling VFs
  i40e: remove pci_assigned_vfs() check while disabling VFs
  qlcnic: remove pci_assigned_vfs() check while disabling VFs
