This driver must work for all kernels, whether they have SRIOV support or not.  
Presumably the #ifdef CONFIG_PCI_IOV would be stripped for a kernel driver 
where the kernel configures SR-IOV support.

I'll let John Ronciak respond on the issue of upstream review.

Wouldn't it make more sense for the IOV code to be reworked to not
require #ifdefs in a driver?  There seems to be a bit too much #ifdef
code in this driver right now :(

What is the status of submitting it upstream and getting netdev review
of it?

thanks,
