[dpdk-dev] [PATCH resend] virtio: fix link state regression

Support for link state interrupt was broken on virtio by

commit bda66c418c85 ("ethdev: add device fields from PCI layer")

This is caused because the actual value of drv_flags is not set
until after the resource_init has figured out whether it is using
UIO or direct I/O instructions.

There maybe other drivers with the same problem. It would have
been better to move the structure elements (and break ABI) rather
than assume it safe to copy them.
