I really like this patch.

Nothing to do with *this* patch, but I have a little heartburn about
the "access somebody else's VPD" approach.

I think the beginning of this was Mark's post [1].  IIUC, there are
Intel multifunction NICs that share some VPD hardware between
functions, and concurrent accesses to VPD of different functions
doesn't work correctly.

I'm pretty sure this is a defect per spec, because PCIe r5.0, sec
7.9.19 doesn't say anything about having to treat VPD on
multi-function devices specially.

The current solution is for all Intel multi-function NICs to redirect
VPD access to function 0.  That single-threads VPD access across all
the functions because we hold function 0's vpd->lock mutex while
reading or writing.

But I think we still have the problem that this implicit sharing of
function 0's VPD opens a channel between functions: if functions are
assigned to different VMs, the VMs can communicate by reading and
writing VPD.

So I wonder if we should just disallow VPD access for these NICs
except on function 0.  There was a little bit of discussion in that
direction at [2].
