Why this assumption?
Please start by stated the issue to solve.
> Device parameters are available to rte_devices via their devargs field.
> This field should be set up as soon as possible, as central information

> the newly scanned device before plugging it in.
>
> When a device is introduced using the hotplug API, it is implicitly
> whitelisted. As such, it can conflict with existing bus configuration.
> The new rte_devargs uses the new rte_eal_devargs_insert function that
> supersedes previous rte_devargs, allowing to force the insertion of new
> devices.
