When we are trying to change VF settings, it is possible for 2 race conditions to happen. One, when the VF is created but not yet enabled. Second, the VF is enabled but the VSI is still not created or not yet re-created in the VF reset flow. This patch introduces a helper function to validate that the VF is enabled and that the VSI is set up. This patch also calls this function from other functions which could get into these race conditions. While we are poking around here, remove unnecessary parenthesis that checkpatch was complaining about.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
