_GPL?

It'd also be best to separate the pci and vfio changes into different
patches. Bjorn would need to at least ack this PCI interface.

This looks stateful, VF autoprobe is not restored on release. Also,
how would we know the initial state to restore it to?

This probably deserves more explanation, in comment and commit log.
Probably a dev_crit() is also justified, knowing the PF would be
useful. Thanks,
