This patch updates *all* ethdev public APIs to add if device is removed check? And each check goes to ethdev is_removed() dev_ops to ask if dev is removed. These must be better way of doing this, am I missing something. I definitely would like to see more comments for this patch. Another question is what happens if device removed while or before dev_ops called? There is no synchronizations in drivers for removal, right? <...>
