At present the eal driver registration code is more complicated than it
needs to be.
This RFC proposes to simplify the eal driver registration code.
Remove the type field from the eal driver structure.
Refactor the eal driver registration code to use the name
field in the eal driver structure instead of the type field.
Modify all PMD's to use the modified eal driver structure.
Initialise the name field in the eal driver structure
in some PMD's where it is not initialised at present.
