[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v11 01/11] ethdev: add deferred intermediate device state

> This device state means that the device is managed externally, by
> whichever party has set this state (PMD or application).
> 
> Note: this new device state is only an information. The related device
> structure and operators are still valid and can be used normally.
> 
> It is however made private by device management helpers within ethdev,
> making the device invisible to applications.
