Enabling SR-IOV VFs will cause the PCI subsystem to schedule a
work and flush its workqueue.  Since the nfp driver schedules its
own work we can't enable VFs while holding driver load.  Commit
6d48ceb2 ("nfp: allocate a private workqueue for driver work")
tried to avoid this deadlock by creating a separate workqueue.
Unfortunately, due to the architecture of workqueue subsystem this
does not guarantee a separate thread of execution.  Luckily
we can simply take pci_enable_sriov() from under the driver lock.

Take pci_disable_sriov() from under the lock too for symmetry.

Fixes: 6d48ceb2
