Why is this needed?
It seems to me the application should just give hints what it thinks is
best, and then the PMD should do the best it can with that information.
+1, I think it is a very good idea
No validating, no discovering.
Now you have a lot of API verbiage for a fairly esoteric function.
Just to be clear: I think an API like this is a great idea. Controlling
how the NIC and other devices loads and stores data can be crucial.
