Well that doesn't make much sense. As other already noted as well a VF 
should be an encapsulated representation of a physical devices 
functionality.

AMD implemented that a bit different with a hypervisor to control which 
PF functionality a VF exposes, but that doesn't mean that we can leak 
this AMD specific handling into the common Linux PCI subsystem.

Additional to that a technical blocker is that when a VF is passed into 
a VM you don't have access to the PF any more to make this reset 
notification.

Christian.
