[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] i40e: move PCI device ids to driver

Hi Thomas

It should be the one from David as I read that before. I am not sure if all PMD has its own header files for device IDs, but I did see there was.
Even in recent kernel drivers (e.g. i40e), there is a new header file for device ID list. I think it could be clearer, though no correct or wrong.

Regards,
Helin
