  After calling rte_event_dev_info_get() the ".dev" field of the info
structure should have a pointer to the underlying device, allowing the
user to e.g. get the device name using rte_dev_name(info.dev).

The SW eventdev info structure did not return a correct device pointer,
though, instead returning NULL, which caused crashes getting
"rte_dev_name". Initializing the dev pointer inside the "eventdev"
struct in the device probe function fixes this by ensuring we have a
valid pointer to return in info_get calls.
