When Linux PF and DPDK VF are used for i40e PMD, In case of PF reset, 
interrupt request will go via adminq event, VF need be informed, a 
callback mechanism is introduced by VF. This will allow VF to invoke 
callback when reset happens.
Users can register a callback for this interrupt event like:
    rte_eth_dev_callback_register(portid,
                 RTE_ETH_EVENT_INTR_RESET,
                 reset_event_callback,
                 arg);
