[PATCH] PCI/IOV: update num_VFs earlier

["Pierre Crégut" <pierre.cregut@orange.com>]

Ensure that iov->num_VFs is set before a netlink message is sent
when the number of VFs is changed. Only the path for num_VFs > 0
is affected. The path for num_VFs = 0 is already correct.

Monitoring programs can relie on netlink messages to track interface
change and query their state in /sys. But when sriov_numvfs is set to a
positive value, the netlink message is sent before the value is available
in sysfs. The value read after the message is received is always zero.

note: the behaviour can be tested with the following shell script also
available on the bugzilla (d being the phy device name):

ip monitor dev $d | grep --line-buffered "^[0-9]*:" | \
while read line; do cat /sys/class/net/$d/device/sriov_numvfs; done
