  This new parameter is needed to keep device type like PCI or virtual.
Port detaching processes are different between PCI device and virtual
device.
RTE_ETH_DEV_PCI indicates device type is PCI. RTE_ETH_DEV_VIRTUAL
indicates device is virtual.

v9:
- Fix commit log.
- RTE_ETH_DEV_PHYSICAL is replaced by RTE_ETH_DEV_PCI.
  (Thanks to Thomas Monjalon)
v8:
- NONE_TRACE is replaced by NO_TRACE.
- Add missing symbol in version map.
  (Thanks to Qiu, Michael and Iremonger, Bernard)
v4:
- Fix comments of rte_eth_dev_type.

Hi Tetsuya,

" The pointer to the port id"  should be removed.
