Nitpick: the word "by" is accidentally doubled.

Also, I would recommend to add a description of reproduction steps (most
preferably a script or a command sequence) which triggers such an error
reported by KASAN.

The fix looks correct to me.
We actually call "netif_napi_add()" for all allocated q_vectors unconditionally
in "iavf_alloc_q_vectors()").
