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?
