Notifications needs to be added.

> 2) Is there any kind of ordering the application has to follow before calling rte_eth_dev_detatch()?

The order is "stop - close - detach":
/**
 * Detach a Ethernet device specified by port identifier.
 * This function must be called when the device is in the
 * closed state.
