[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2] net/i40e: fix PF notify issue when VF not up

1. At first, I add vs state modification as follows, but it will show a warning when I check the patch.
The warning says that usually the else after return or break would not be executed.
		if (i >= VFRESET_MAX_WAIT_CNT) {
			PMD_DRV_LOG(ERR, "VF reset timeout");
			return -ETIMEDOUT;
		} else 
			vf->state = I40E_VF_ACTIVE;
2. Does it mean if vf state isn't inactive, the function will  do "ret = i40e_aq_send_msg_to_vf();" and following statements ?

It's much clearer to add "vf->state = I40E_VF_ACTIVE;" here but not above.

How about just don't send msg to inactive VF but not print warning?
