Public bug reported:

---Problem Description---
Using Ubuntu mainline kernel 
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.8-rc6/
if we try to enable SRIOV in Mellanox CX4 card it will fail. 

# uname -r

root@c158f2u09os:~# echo 7 > /sys/class/net/enP5p1s0f0/device/sriov_numvfs
-bash: echo: write error: Cannot allocate memory

logs show:

---uname output---
4.8.0-040800rc6-generic
 
---Additional Hardware Info---
To recreate this you need power system and a Mellanox card that can be used for 
SRIOV.  

 
Machine Type = P8 
 
---Steps to Reproduce---
 with a Mellanox card like CX4 with SRIOV enabled.
just do this echo to the PF interface in this case was enP5p1s0f0.
echo 1 > /sys/class/net/enP5p1s0f0/device

If I take kernel 4.8 and I revert the following patch I can get it to
work again:
