Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] pci/iov: fix kobject_uevent() ordering in
sriov_enable()
Wait to call kobject_uevent() until all of the associated changes are done,
including updating the num_VFs value. This avoids any possibility of
userspace responding to the event and getting a stale value (although
probably impossible to actually happen).
