Hi Lukasz,

Back in v3 you changed this:

- Secondary controller cannot be set online unless the corresponding VF
  is enabled (sriov_numvfs set to at least the secondary controller's VF
  number)

I'm having issues getting this to work now. As I understand it, this now
requires that sriov_numvfs is set prior to onlining the devices, i.e.:

  echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000\:01\:00.0/sriov_numvfs

However, this causes the kernel to reject it:

  nvme nvme1: Device not ready; aborting initialisation, CSTS=0x2
  nvme nvme1: Removing after probe failure status: -19

Is this the expected behavior? Must I manually bind the device again to
the nvme driver? Prior to v3 this worked just fine since the VF was
onlined at this point.

It would be useful if you added a small "onlining for dummies" section
to the docs ;)
