    iflib: Permit SR-IOV configuration on a down interface
    
    Drivers which remap PF queues need a stop/mutate/restart transaction
    only when the interface has live queues. Permit their IOV
    initialization callback while the interface is administratively down
    and leave it down afterward.
    
    This restores the standard boot-time iovctl.conf workflow and
    lets other opt-in drivers configure VFs before netif brings the PF up.
    
    (cherry picked from commit 2cf580c694f6f392531a63f01c3fb89c0244f89a)
