Doing it that way opens the door for a potentially malicious\nVF to do nasty things to the PF which should never be the case.\n\nThis makes it such that after VF makes a successful request, PF will\nthen reset the VF to institute required changes.  Only if the request\nfails will PF send a message back to VF letting it know the request was\nunsuccessful.\n\nTesting-hints:\nThere should be no real functional changes.
