HNS3 driver includes hns3.ko, hnae3.ko and hclge.ko.
hns3.ko includes network stack and pci_driver, hclge.ko includes
HW device action, algo_ops and timer task, hnae3.ko includes some
register function.
When SRIOV is enable and hclge.ko is removed, HW device is unloaded
but VF still exists, PF will not reply VF mbx messages, and cause
errors.
This patch fix it by disable SRIOV before remove hclge.ko.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
