Tried this, but it needs some change to how braces at start of function
are handled.  For example, this is not how DPDK should look:

 static int
-rte_pmd_tap_remove(struct rte_vdev_device *dev)
-{
+rte_pmd_tap_remove(struct rte_vdev_device *dev) {
 	struct rte_eth_dev *eth_dev = NULL;
 
 	/* find the ethdev entry */
