Comment is the copy of previous one.
You are right here, even we process these type in the same way but
should be considered it as the different type if we exactly want to add
new one.
so base on the interpret from the vfio kernel driver, this req event is
used to require the user space to release the device resources, so it
should be
interpret it by "device release request". If you object and have other
better idea, let me know.
RTE_DEV_EVENT_MAX /**< max value of this enum */
};
