[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 12/18] eal: add generic device declaration parameter

Add a new generic device declaration parameter:

   --dev=<device_declaration>

That allows to declare device from any bus. The format is as follows:

device_declaration := <bus><c><device>[,arg_list]

bus      := bus name
c        := arbitrary character separator
device   := device name (PCI location, virtual PMD name, ...)
arg_list := key value list: key1=val1[,key2=val2[,...]]

The bus name is mandatory. The character separator can be anything.
The device name is mandatory. The argument list is optional.

Examples:

    --dev=pci:0000:05:00.0,port=1
    --dev=vdev_net_ring0
