This is a poor location to add a new 32-bit field, right between two 8-bit fields. Adding it here will likely cause more padding than necessary to be added. Add the new field alongside other 32-bit fields to minimize padding.

There is no need for a switch statement here, I think. Simplify the code by just adding a "(hw->device_id == IDPF_DEV_ID_SRIOV)" check at the start of idpf_is_vf_device function, and use that in all cases.

Why pass in is_vf as parameter and return int here, given that there is no possible error. I would rewrite as:

bool idpf_is_vf_device(struct idpf_hw *hw) {
	if (hw->device_id == IDPF_DEV_ID_SRIOV)
		return 1;
	IDPF_WRITE_REG(hw, VF_ARQBAL, IDPF_VF_TEST_VAL);
	return IDPF_READ_REG(hw, VF_ARQBAL) == IDPF_VF_TEST_VAL; }

While only one line longer, it removes the need for the switch statement above and all the error handling for a non-zero result which can never happen.

So the device does not identify itself as an ethernet device because it has it's class id set as the ethernet-class shifted by 8?
