Not knowing anything about mlx5, it looks like maybe this gets some
parameters from firmware on the device, then changes the way MSI-X
vectors are distributed among VFs?
I don't understand the implications above about "static assignment"
and "inefficiency in the spread." I guess maybe this takes advantage
of the fact that you know how many VFs are enabled, so if NumVFs is
less that TotalVFs, you can assign more vectors to each VF?
If that's the case, spell it out a little bit. The current text makes
it sound like you discovered brand new MSI-X vectors somewhere,
regardless of how many VFs are enabled, which doesn't sound right.
