[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v3 0/1] eal/interrupts: add synchronous wrapper around unregister

[Renata Saiakhova]

For pci_vfio, while removing the device by rte_dev_remove(),
pci_vfio_disable_notifier() will call rte_intr_callback_unregister(),
which may return -EAGAIN, if an interrupt source (kernel) has some active
callbacks right now. As a result, the callback (req notifier) can be never unregistered,
and the corresponding descriptor (vfio_req_intr_handle.fd) can be never closed.
The kernel will continuously try to notify the user space using req notifier, but as
the device is already removed, in this case it even cannot find a bus for that
device, the log is full of messages "EAL: Cannot find bus for device (XX:XX.X)"

v3:
* Subject line reworded
v2:
* Use only for pci-vfio in pci_vfio_disable_notifier()
