I will not like to remove it completely.  Can we OR it priv->flags ?

devargs are good. In most cases DPDK based application has specific set 
of devargs hard coded. They need to re-build if they want different boot 
args.

This is one of the env, which is used by customer to dynamically tune 
the system for performance without the need to re-build their app every 
time.
