This patch fixes the checks and warnings for igb_enable_sriov and

Quoting documentation:
Clean-up patches
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Netdev discourages patches which perform simple clean-ups, which are not in
the context of other work. For example:
* Addressing ``checkpatch.pl`` warnings
* Addressing :ref:`Local variable ordering<rcs>` issues
* Conversions to device-managed APIs (``devm_`` helpers)
This is because it is felt that the churn that such changes produce comes
at a greater cost than the value of such clean-ups.
Conversely, spelling and grammar fixes are not discouraged.
See:https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/next/process/maintainer-netdev.html#clean-up-patches
I'm quite new to this area so I must have missed that portion of
documentation. Apologies for the inconvenience.
