PCI/IOV: Add pci_sriov_configure_simple() SR-IOV (Single Root I/O Virtualization) is an optional PCIe capability (see PCIe r4.0, sec 9). A PCIe Function with the SR-IOV capability is referred to as a PF (Physical Function). If SR-IOV is enabled on the PF, several VFs (Virtual Functions) may be created. The VFs can be individually assigned to virtual machines, which allows them to share a single hardware device while being isolated from each other. Some SR-IOV devices have resources such as queues and interrupts that must be set up in the PF before enabling the VFs, so they require a PF driver to do that. Other SR-IOV devices don't require any PF setup before enabling VFs. Add a pci_sriov_configure_simple() interface so PF drivers for such devices can use it without repeating the VF-enabling code.
