Subject: [net-next-2.6 PATCH] rtnetlink: clean up SR-IOV config interface

From: Williams, Mitch A <mitch.a.williams@...el.com>

This patch consists of a few minor cleanups to the SR-IOV
configurion code in rtnetlink.
- Remove unneccesary lock
- Remove unneccesary casts
- Return correct error code for no driver support

These changes are based on comments from Patrick McHardy
