-  The dma/idxd driver, which has its own bus, seems ok, though I
would align its code for readability.

- There is an impact on upper classes of devices.

For ethdev, a port inherits the numa_node value from the rte_device object.
Yet, rte_eth_dev_socket_id() is described as:
 * @return
 *   The NUMA socket ID to which the Ethernet device is connected or
 *   a default of zero if the socket could not be determined.
 *   -1 is returned is the port_id value is out of range.
