Jay Pipes helpfully pointed out that the MAX_FUNC value was defined by
the PCI spec, and didn't refer to the SRIOV VF value, but rather the PCI
device function.

The original issue turned out to be a local problem generating the PCI
whitelist.

Title:
  nova MAX_FUNC value in nova/pci/devspec.py is too low

Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
  Invalid

Bug description:
  The MAX_FUNC value in nova/pci/devspec.py is set to 0x7.  This limits
  us to a relatively small number of VFs per PF, which is annoying when
  trying to use SRIOV in any sort of serious way.
