[dpdk-dev] [PATCH V3] ethdev: add dev configured flag

Currently, if dev_configure is not called or fails to be called, users
can still call dev_start successfully. So it is necessary to have a flag
which indicates whether the device is configured, to control whether
dev_start can be called and eliminate dependency on user invocation order.

The flag stored in "struct rte_eth_dev_data" is more reasonable than
 "enum rte_eth_dev_state". "enum rte_eth_dev_state" is private to the
primary and secondary processes, and can be independently controlled.
However, the secondary process does not make resource allocations and
does not call dev_configure(). These are done by the primary process
and can be obtained or used by the secondary process. So this patch
adds a "dev_configured" flag in "rte_eth_dev_data", like "dev_started".

v2 -> v3:
 - move "dev->data->dev_configured = 1" to the front of the trace.
