During SR-IOV teardown, enetc_msg_psi_free() disables the MR interrupt before pci_disable_sriov() removes the VFs. If a VF sends a mailbox message during this window, the PF cannot receive it, causing the VF to timeout waiting for a reply. Since the timeout occurs during SR-IOV teardown when the VF is about to be removed anyway, it has no functional impact on operation. However, more messages will be added in the future, some visible error logs may confuse users. So fix it by calling pci_disable_sriov() first to remove all VFs, then safely clean up the mailbox resources. This eliminates the race window where VFs could send messages to an unresponsive PF.
