This is a partial fix. The major issue here is rte_eth_copy_pci_info has
an undocumented side effect: it resets the dev_flags unconditionally. 

Removing such reset should be able to fix it: it also looks like the right
fix to me. Thomas, Ferruh?

If not, we could at least call rte_eth_copy_pci_info() at eth_virtio_dev_init(),
before we set any dev_flags bits.
