I would like not to have to add your patch in this file as I am trying to
remove it entirely. I don't have an SR-IOV capable device in my setup so
I am not able to debug your problem, but could you have a go and try to
figure out why the SR-IOV resources do not get a parent associated with
when they get created?

Many thanks,
Liviu
