When a vf has been reset, the pf wants to get notification to remove the vf
out of schedule.

Solution:
Add the callback function in pci_driver sriov_vf_reset_notification. When
vf reset happens, then call this callback function.

Well that doesn't make much sense. As other already noted as well a VF should be an encapsulated representation of a physical devices functionality.

AMD implemented that a bit different with a hypervisor to control which PF functionality a VF exposes, but that doesn't mean that we can leak this AMD specific handling into the common Linux PCI subsystem.

Additional to that a technical blocker is that when a VF is passed into a VM you don't have access to the PF any more to make this reset notification.

Regards,
Christian.
