[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 7/7] eal: add lcore hotplug notifications

From ABI  PoV, you are 100%.

Is the agreed term 'callback'?, not 'notifier' for example rte_dev_event_callback_register, rte_mem_event_callback_register

I did wonder however, if all these cb's would be better handled through a EventDev event notification style approach.
