Sure.
VFs work a little bit different from normal devices. On powernv platform, we
have PCI_REASSIGN_ALL_RSRC set, which means all resource retrieved from
hardware will be cleaned and re-assigned by kernel. While VF's resources are
calculated from PF's IOV BAR, in virtfn_add(). And after this, there is not
re-assign process for VFs.
