Does the disabling of VF MSE in pci_iov_config actually protect anything 
else beyond what happens in pci_read_bar? I gave a read through which 
suggests "no", but I might have missed something. Just thinking that the 
code would be a bit more hardy if it were done the same way for both VFs 
and other devices.
