[dpdk-dev,1/5] bond: use existing enslaved device queues
Commit Message
If a device to be enslaved already has transmit and/or receive queues
allocated, use those and then create any additional queues that are
necessary.

Why you want to do that?
As far as I am aware (but Declan Doherty should speak here to) purpose
of this part of code is to have configuration of queues in slaves
consistent with bd_rx_q/bd_tx_q. If you skip reconfiguration of queues
that are already configured in port you can have them configured
in different way after enslaving.
So again: what is the purpose of doing so?

Pawel,
I generally test things I've just built using virtio devices and calling
rte_eth_tx_queue_setup() more than once for a given queue id fails.
However, it seems that most PMDs allow re-allocating device queues while
virtio does not (xenvirt also seems to lack this functionality), so I
don't think my approach here is right. I'll remove this patch when I
send the next version of this series.
Thanks,
Eric

Maybe you should rise this as separate issue maintainers of these drivers?
