I'm undecided about it, I wanted eth_find_device to be and internal
operator in the most generic way, allowing ethdev layer to move from
manually iterating to using this, to introduce the probable future
evolution of not using an array of rte_eth_devices.
So I thought of this operator as something stateless, only looking at
currently available memory and letting the comparison select what is
useful. Maybe for example this operator would be used to find the next
unused device, etc.
My doubts is that this is kind of future-proofing the design, something
that I don't think is good practice.
So, if you prefer something that takes care of state, as far as devargs
parsing is concerned, I'm ok with that. Otherwise it can stay that way,
UNUSED devices are taken care of afterward.
