From: Pierre Crégut <pierre.cregut@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 35ff867b76576e32f34c698ccd11343f7d616204 ] When sriov_numvfs is being updated, we call the driver->sriov_configure() function, which may enable VFs and call probe functions, which may make new devices visible. This all happens before before sriov_numvfs_store() updates sriov->num_VFs, so previously, concurrent sysfs reads of sriov_numvfs returned stale values. Serialize the sysfs read vs the write so the read returns the correct num_VFs value.
