[PATCH] net/ixgbe: increase vf reset timeout

[Kevin Traynor]

Hi Bruce,

I see you are the lucky delegate for this patch :-)

https://patchwork.dpdk.org/project/dpdk/patch/20240130100027.39466-1-ktraynor@redhat.com/

Just wondering if any comment and if it's planned for 23.03 or later
release ?

thanks,
Kevin.
