Thank you for the patch.

Question to ethdev maintainers:

While reviewing this patch, I took a look at rte_eth_dev_internal_reset() which is called by bonding PMD for removed members.
This resets Rx and Tx queue configuration, and dev->data->dev_conf,
but not dev->data->dev_configured flag.
So theoretically, after this call, a port can be started without port configuration, which seems invalid.
What do you think? Should it be fixed? 

Best regards,
Dariusz Sosnowski
