  The fields of the internal EAL core configuration are currently
laid bare as part of the API. This is not good practice and limits
fixing issues with layout and sizes.

Make new accessor functions for the fields used by current drivers
and examples. Mark the state and return code functions as experimental
since these values might change in the future and probably shouldn't
have been used by non EAL code anyway.

Most of these functions are not marked as experimental since
we want applications to convert over asap. The one exception is
the return_code, which is only used by some tests now and not
clear that it is even that useful.

You removed the state function, no need to mention it.

Since we already expose the state, exposing the ret code seems fair.
Applications can wait themselves and check the return code the way they
want.

Just want to point that the current test app could do without it, since it
is quite simple, it waits for all, then checks all return codes.

Ah, checkpatch does not complain for me, I would have expected a warning on
"unsigned int".
Can you fix it so that it matches the declaration from the header ?

The rest looks fine.
