This patch ifdefs out the use of PCI_IOV_RESOURCES which exists in the
kernel only when CONFIG_PCI_IOV is defined. There is no point in doing
the same for the invocation of SRIOV functionality in the driver as it
will be immediately failed by a kernel which was thus compiled.

This fixes the build but this is a very disappointing patch.

None of your SR-IOV support can possibly work if CONFIG_PCI_IOV
is not set.

Look at how the SFC driver has a special Kconfig option and elides
all of it's SR-IOV code when that Kconfig option is not set.

That kind of Kconfig option is where you express the CONFIG_PCI_IOV
dependency, rather than in a hackish way with ifdefs as a knee-jerk
response to a build failure reports.

I'm not applying this patch, segregate your driver properly and use
Kconfig dependencies to elide the building of all of the SR-IOV
support code in this driver.
