This is a follow-up of an idea presented at Dublin
during the "hotplug talk".
Instead of changing the existing hotplug functions, as in the RFC,
some new experimental functions are added.
The old functions lose their experimental status in order to provide
a non-experimental replacement for deprecated attach/detach functions.
It has been discussed briefly in the latest technical board meeting.
Changes in v4 - after Andrew's review:
- add API changes in release notes (patches 1 & 2)
- fix memory leak in rte_eal_hotplug_add (patch 4)
Change in v3:
- fix null dereferencing in error path (patch 2)
Thomas Monjalon (4):
devargs: remove deprecated functions
devargs: simplify parameters of removal function
eal: remove experimental flag of hotplug functions
eal: simplify parameters of hotplug functions
