No, I thought this patch can be dropped from patchset, but no, you need
this for decoupling pci_dev.
So, this needs to be resolved in integration time.
I believe this patchset should be against main tree, because of eal and
ethdev patches in it.
And there are already a few patchset around for this area, let's not add
more complexity by adding next-net into the picture.
