igb: do not re-init SR-IOV during probe
commit 6423fc34 upstream. 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.
