[ Upstream commit 35ff867b76 ]
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.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
