Ixgbe PF driver use IXGBE_PF_CONTROL_MSG to cover LSC, configuration, link up/down.
After these events, VF cannot work. I want the user to reset the VF port to make it work again.
Let me explain more in commit log to make it clearer.

O, I follow the style of ixgbe. It's a good suggestion, I may create a new patch to enhance it later.
