> 
> These functions are used for attaching or detaching a port.
> When rte_eal_dev_attach() is called, the function tries to realize the device name as pci address. If
> this is done successfully,
> rte_eal_dev_attach() will attach physical device port. If not, attaches virtual devive port.
> When rte_eal_dev_detach() is called, the function gets the device type of this port to know whether
> the port is come from physical or virtual.
> And then specific detaching function will be called.
> 
> v8:
> - Add missing symbol in version map.
>   (Thanks to Qiu, Michael and Iremonger, Bernard)
> v7:
> - Fix typo of warning messages.
>   (Thanks to Qiu, Michael)
> v5:

>   rte_eal_dev_invoke() to rte_eal_vdev_invoke().
> - Add code to handle a return value of rte_eal_devargs_remove().
> - Fix pci address format in rte_eal_dev_detach().
> v4:
> - Fix comment.
> - Add error checking.
