I don't think so, here ,i40e_reset_and_rebuild() is not the only and
the first place that i40e_init_pf_fcoe() is called,
see i40e_probe(), that is the first chance.
i40e_probe()
-->i40e_sw_init()
-->i40e_init_pf_fcoe()
And the I40E_FLAG_FCOE_ENABLED is possible be set by
i40e_fcoe_enable() or i40e_fcoe_disable() interface before the reset
action is to be done.
BTW, the reason I post this patch is that we hit a bug, after setup
vlan, the PF is enabled to FCOE.

The following patch will not fix the above issue -- configuration of
PF will be changed via reset.
How about the FCOE is configured and disabled by i40e_fcoe_disable()
, then reset happens ?
