I checked in the Linux kernel and there is no reference to 'sriov_maxvfs'.
This means that it's not likely to be something that it's one way in
s390x/powerpc but another way in x86.

Also, googling 'sriov_maxvfs' gives 3 results only. First result isn't
related to a sriov_maxvfs file, the remaining results are links to this
Libvirt documentation. So yeah.
