[PATCH 1/2] bus/pci: fix a segfault when call callback

[Min Hu (Connor)]

From: Huisong Li <lihuisong@huawei.com>

After the driver probe is executed, the callback in application will
be called. The callback in application may call some APIs which access the
rte_pci_driver::driver by the device::driver pointer to get driver
information. If the rte_pci_device::device::driver pointer isn't pointed to
rte_pci_driver::driver in rte_pci_probe_one_driver, a segfault will occur.
For example, when ethdev driver probe completes, the callback in
application call rte_eth_dev_info_get which use dev->device->driver->name.
So rte_pci_device::device::driver should point to rte_pci_driver::driver
before executing the driver probe.

[PATCH 2/2] bus/vdev: fix a segfault when call callback

[Min Hu (Connor)]

From: Huisong Li <lihuisong@huawei.com>

After the driver probe is executed, the callback in application will be
called. And this callback may call some APIs which access the driver in
struct rte_vdev_driver by the device::driver pointer to get some driver
information. If the rte_vdev_device::device::driver pointer isn't pointed
to the rte_vdev_driver::driver before executing driver probe, a segfault
will occur.

What is the "callback in application" ?
Do you mean the callback on probing event like RTE_ETH_EVENT_NEW?

I understand the need and I approve the move.

I would like to make this comment simpler
once I'm sure we share the same understanding.
