Understood.
Another option is to unmap only on ERROR(ie, when probe return <0 value)
ret = dr->probe(dr, dev);
if (ret) { // change to if (ret < 0)
dev->driver = NULL;
if (dr->drv_flags & RTE_PCI_DRV_NEED_MAPPING)
rte_pci_unmap_device(dev);
}
I am fine with either way. Let me know, what you prefer. I will
change accordingly.
