Bug description:
  ---Problem Description---
  If I enable SRIOV in a Mellanox CX4 card while a PF interface is doing 
something like a ping flood. The PF interface will stop pinging. 
  We found a small window were MMIO are bein g disabled during pci_enable_sriov 
is called. 
   
  ---uname output---
  4.4.0-30-generic
   
  ---Additional Hardware Info---
  It needs a Mellanox CX4 SRIOV capable to recreate this issue 

  Machine Type = P8 
    
  ---Steps to Reproduce---
   just configure the IP address of PF interface and start like a ping flood to 
that interface.
  then do this echo to enable SRIOV on the PF. 
  echo 8 > /sys/class/net/enP1p1s0f0/device/sriov_numvfs
  Then you will notice the ping flood will stop.
