For the newly created VF, if the number of qps is greater than 4 at
startup, it may fail to start. This patch updates the API
`i40evf_dev_configure`.

Could you explicit explain why it limit to 4 qps, and more detail about below
code change with the purpose of the patch.
For each VF, the kernel PF driver assign 4 qps when the VF be created.


It would be better also add the detail info replace of "updates".

Why interrupt handler is no need to cancel here and more why this change
is related with this patch according with the commit log?
Here, the handler has been cancecled by the caller.


 If it related with this patch please add the fix info into the commit log and delete the useless statement in the begin.

Why it should be set stopped when init dev?
The Device has not been started until the API ` i40evf_dev_start ` been called.
Here we just initiate the device, so it should be set to 1.


make sense, and what about below "hw->adapter_closed = 0;", should it be after the success of the init process.

Should you check below part is reinitialize process according to exist
dev_close and dev_init.
Yes, it stops and reinitializes the device , but if call the dev_close to do, 
some process is no needed and should report errors.


When close dev, it will stop dev and free queues, but you don't involve the process of free queues here,  and you check the "hw->adapter_stopped" before, so if it had stopped and then close, why it will report some errors of some useless process?
