crypto: qat - allow disabling SR-IOV VFs

Browse source

The QAT driver allows enabling SR-IOV VFs but does not allow them to be
disabled through a write to sysfs.
Disabling SR-IOV VFs can be only achieved by bringing down and up a
device using the attribute /sys/bus/pci/devices/<BDF>/qat/state.

The documentation for the sysfs attribute `sriov_numvfs` specifies
that "a userspace application wanting to disable the VFs would write a
zero to this file".

Add support for disabling SR-IOV VFs by writing '0' to the
'sriov_numvfs' attribute in sysfs.

Enabling or disabling SR-IOV always requires adf_dev_down() to be
called. This action subsequently leads to the deletion of the
ADF_KERNEL_SEC configuration section. The keys ADF_NUM_CY and ADF_NUM_DC
within that section must be set to '0', otherwise, the driver will
register into the Linux Crypto Framework. Because of this, the
configuration in the ADF_KERNEL_SEC section must be added before every
sriov_enable.
