[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 01/10] net/mlx5: fix sriov flag

[Nelio Laranjeiro <nelio.laranjeiro@6wind.com>]

priv_get_num_vfs() was used to help the PMD in prefetching the mbuf in
datapath when the PMD was behaving in VF mode.
This knowledge is no more used.

Fixes: 528a9fbec6de ("net/mlx5: support ConnectX-5 devices")
