Network driver are under drivers/net/*, you can check if the driver for that
device exists,
and if there is any driver you suspect it may support, you can check the driver
details and which devices it support via './usertools/dpdk-pmdinfo.py' script.

For example:
./usertools/dpdk-pmdinfo.py build/lib/librte_pmd_hinic.so
PMD NAME: net_hinic
