You cannot call pci_disable_sriov because you will panic all of the

So how does your patch actually fix this problem? It seems like it is
just avoiding it.
>From what I can tell your problem is originating in pci_call_probe. I
believe it is calling work_on_cpu and that doesn't seem correct since
the work should be taking place on a CPU already local to the PF. You
might want to look there to see why you are trying to schedule work on a
CPU which should be perfectly fine for you to already be doing your work on.
Thanks,
Alex
