I'm open for suggestions. I didn't use sriov_vf_msix_count because it
seems too long for me.

We had this discussion over v0 variant of this series.
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-pci/20210108072525.GB31158@unreal/
This is per-VF property, but this VF is not bounded to the driver so you
need some way to convey new number to the HW, so it will update PCI value.
You must change/update this field after VF is created, because all SR-IOV VFs
are created at the same time. The operator (administrator/orchestration
software/e.t.c) will know the right amount of MSI-X vectors right before
he will bind this VF to requested VM.
It means that extending PF sysfs to get both VF index and count will
look very unfriendly for the users.
The PF here is an anchor to the relevant driver.

There is already get operator - pci_msix_vec_count().
The same as above, PF is an anchor for the driver. VF doesn't have
driver yet and we can't write directly to this PCI field - it is read-only.

The whole purpose of this interface it to change read-only field and to
prevent any possible complications, this field is possible to change
only for unprobed device.
The limit checks are done in FW as it is the entity that manages SR-IOV PCI
config space. This is true for mlx5, other drivers can do their checks in the SW.
