  Currently white/blacklists doesn't work for hotplugged devices.

This patch checks if device is on the blacklist before attempting
to attach it.

Fixes: a3ee360f4440 ("eal: add hotplug add/remove device")

Current behavior is the intended behavior.
A blacklisted device, then hotplugged, should be probed.

The current devargs management was designed to allow this in
Commit: 55744d83d525 ("devargs: introduce insert function")

If you think this behavior should change, there should be a discussion
about it. If the community agrees with you, then the proper way to
change this would be by rewriting the above.
