Do you mean this use case was not tested earlier with DPDK 19.08?

I think this is expected, because VA is the new default since 19.08:
http://doc.dpdk.org/guides/rel_notes/release_19_08.html#new-features
In case, there is no constraint on initialization,
we have to decide which mode is preferred.
Previously PA was preferred.
For the sake of modernity (and because it fits with some new devices),
the preference has been changed to VA.
If igb_uio device is used at initialization,
the PA mode should be used.
If igb_uio (PA-only) device is hotplugged, no luck!
If VA-only device is hotplugged, it works!
I think this change is one step in deprecating igb_uio.
