ixgbe: do not use adapter->num_vfs when setting VFs via module parameter
Avoid setting adapter->num_vfs early in the init code path when
using the max_vfs module parameter by passing it to ixgbe_enable_sriov()
as a function parameter.
This fixes an issue where if we failed to allocate vfinfo in
__ixgbe_enable_sriov() the driver will crash with NULL pointer in
ixgbe_disable_sriov() when attempting to free the vfinfo struct based
on adapter->num_vfs. Also it cleans up the assignment of adapter->num_vfs
since now it will only be set in __ixgbe_enable_sriov() and cleared in
ixgbe_disable_sriov().
