[dpdk-dev,v8,05/14] ethdev: Add rte_eth_dev_free to free specified device
Commit Message
This patch adds rte_eth_dev_free(). The function is used for changing an
attached status of the device that has specified name.
v6:
- Use rte_eth_dev structure as the paramter of rte_eth_dev_free().
v4:
- Add parameter checking.

This function is strange. I would imagine it calling the free (uninit) function
of the driver.
