[dpdk-dev] [RFC 9/9] net/mlx5: support new device global syntax

[Xueming Li <xuemingl@nvidia.com>]

This patch support new device global syntax like:
	bus=pci,addr=BB:DD.F/class=eth/driver=mlx5,devargs,..

Ignore "driver" key as part of new global device syntax in devargs.

The representor devarg is supposed to come from either class section or
driver section.
