During driver probing the following code path is triggered.
igb_probe
->igb_sw_init
->igb_probe_vfs
->igb_pci_enable_sriov
->igb_sriov_reinit
Doing the SR-IOV re-init is not necessary during probing since we're
starting from scratch. Here we can call igb_enable_sriov() right away.
Running igb_sriov_reinit() during igb_probe() also seems to cause
occasional packet loss on some onboard 82576 NICs. Reproduced on
Dell and HP servers with onboard 82576 NICs.
