This field indicates the amount of MSI-X available for VFs, it doesn't
include PFs. The missing "_vf_" will mislead users who will believe that
it is all MSI-X vectors available for this device. They will need to take
into consideration amount of PF MSI-X in order to calculate the VF distribution.

So I would leave "_vf_" here.

Right, I made it similar to the vf_msix_set. I can change.

"Broken" is a nice word to describe misunderstanding.

The vf_total_msix is not set by the users and used solely by the drivers
to advertise their capability. This field is needed to give a way to
calculate how much MSI-X VFs can get. The driver code is part of the
kernel and like any other kernel code, it is trusted.

I'm checking < 0 in another _set_ routine to make sure that we will be
able to extend this sysfs entry if at some point of time negative vector
count will make sense.

"Count" instead of "numb" is fine by me.
