Yes probing can create several ports.

Allocation is too early to notify a new port.
We need to wait it is initialized before using it.

The PMD sends one event per port by calling the appropriate ethdev function.
Event and allocation are not tied. I don't see the issue.

Note the definition of this event has always been about probing,
not allocation:
	RTE_ETH_EVENT_NEW,      /**< port is probed */
