Azure provides an optional "Accelerated Networking" feature. Enabling this feature when creating a VM enables SR-IOV and provides the guest with a virtual function. Supporting this requires two changes. Firstly, the kernel-modules package is required as it contains the Mellanox drivers required for the VF provided to the guest. Secondly, the interface needs to be ignored by NetworkManager or it'll try and fail to bring up the device and the VM will be unreachable except by serial console. If this is observed, it's likely new hardware has been deployed and additional drivers need to be added to the NetworkManager config. See https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-network/accelerated-networking-overview for details.
