Hi Dan,

I see that the patch cited above added the line you are changing.
But it also seems to me that patch was moving it from elsewhere.

Perhaps I am mistaken, but I wonder if this is a better tag.

Fixes: a1cbb15c1397 ("ixgbe: Add macvlan support for VF")

I'm not sure it it is worth it, but perhaps more conventional error
handling could be used here:

        if (!mv_list)
                return;

        for (i = 0; i < num_vf_macvlans; i++) {
                ...
