This is to provide abstraction and reduce global variable access.

Global variable rte_eth_devices kept exported to not break ABI.

Bonding driver not selected on purpose, just it seems it is using 
rte_eth_devices heavily.

There are a few more usage in drivers but they left as it is because they
are in fast path code.
