The link state of VF devices can be controlled via "ip link set", but the
current state (auto/disabled) is not reported by "ip link show".

Update ixgbe_ndo_get_vf_config() to make this info available to userspace.

Fixes: 366fd1000995 ("ixgbe: add the ability for the PF to disable VF link 
state")

I would say that your commit extends ixgbe functionality, and is not a
bugfix. For such cases you should avoid Fixes: tag (just mentioning
commit "that introduced the code/ndo" is fine). With that, you could
also specify the tree as "iwl-next", what will also clarify that you
want Intel VAL to process this patch prior to application.
