Yeah, typo, "the" should be removed.

I'll change it to:

"Get the sizes of a VF resizable BAR that can be accomodated within the
resource that reserves the MMIO space if num_vfs are enabled.

Returns 0 if BAR isn't resizable, otherwise returns a bitmask in format
defined in the spec (bit 0=1MB, bit 19=512GB)."
