But this is all driver configuration, the driver might be running in
some VM.

It seems saner to have two kernel interfaces, one used in the
hypervisor on the PF to setup the MSI vector count

And a second interface that becomes available after the driver is
bound to configure the driver, where-ever/how-ever that driver may be
running.

I don't know how you could combine them in one step except for the
simple case of the driver running in the hypervisor?
