[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2] net/ixgbe: fix VFIO interrupt mapping in VF

[Wei Dai]

When a VF port is bound to VFIO-PIC, only miscellaneous interrupt
is mapped to VFIO vector 0 in eth_ixgbevf_dev_init( ).
In ixgbevf_dev_start(), if previous VFIO interrupt mapping set in
eth_ixgbevf_dev_init( ) is not cleard, it will fail when calling
rte_intr_enable( ) tries to map Rx queue interrupt to other VFIO
vectors. This patch clears the VFIO interrupt mappings before
setting both miscellaneous and Rx queue interrupt mappings again
to avoid failure.

Fixes: 77234603fba0 ("net/ixgbe: support VF mailbox interrupt for link up/down")
