As we synced with Dariusz, there is no good place to document
ethdev-drivers interfaces in the release notes.

Also this release there were more ethdev-drivers interface changes,
around get_ptype(), but those also not documented in the release notes,
so will remove these ones too.


But for further release notes, @Thomas, @John, what do you think to add
a new section (or sub-section) for "internal interface" ?? (device
abstraction - drivers) interface changes?
