[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] net/mlx5: use PCI BDF as the port name

It is suggested to use PCI BDF to identify a port for port addition
in OVS-DPDK. While mlx5 has its own naming style: name it by ib dev
name. This breaks the typical OVS DPDK use case and brings more puzzle
to the end users.

To fix it, this patch changes it to use PCI BDF as the name, too.
Also, a postfix " port %u" is added, just in case their might be more
than 1 port assoicated with a PCI device.
