[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 3/4] net/failsafe: replace local sub-device with shared data

[Raslan Darawsheh]

In multiprocess context, the pointer to sub-device is shared between
processes. Previously, it was a pointer to per process eth_dev so
it's needed to replace this dependency.

v2: - moved comment in fs_sdev about subs to this commit
    - added parenthesis around macro arguments.
