[dts] dts can not support one more different nics test in one configuration file

[Zhang, XiaonanX]

Hi all,
   When I tested l3fwd performance on the fortville_spirit and fortville_eagle nic on Federal 21 and Federal20,
   I also met this problem.
   I think the question is about framework  restore_interfaces function of framework crb.py file and 
   I have been modified for fortvill testing due to Fedora20 kernel has been supported i40e driver.
   Suggestion:
   Modifiy /framework/crb.py:

   def restore_interfaces(self):
        """
        Restore Linux interfaces.
        """
        if dts.drivername == "vfio-pci":
            self.send_expect("rmmod vfio_iommu_type1", "# ", 10)
            self.send_expect("rmmod vfio_pci", "# ", 10)
            self.send_expect("rmmod vfio", "# ", 10)
        else:
            self.send_expect("rmmod igb_uio", "# ", 10)
        self.send_expect("modprobe igb", "# ", 20)
        self.send_expect("modprobe ixgbe", "# ", 20)
        self.send_expect("modprobe e1000e", "# ", 20)
        self.send_expect("modprobe e1000", "# ", 20)
        self.send_expect("modprobe virtio_net", "# ", 20)
+       self.send_expect("`insmod /usr/lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e/i40e.ko`", "# ", 50)

   It has been verified in our testing performance l3fwd, That's ok.
   But, If we do this We found Fortville testing only run one case, for example L3fwd.

   If we run other cases in execution.cfg, such as pmd port map cannot map always -1.
   

Best Regards
Xiaonan

You'd better to remove this private info in public maillist :)

BTW, you'd better to supply the error log for others to debug.
