I am agree with Ferruh that it looks a bit clumsy...
Though I don't have any bright ideas here too.
As I can see right now is_removed() is implemented only for mlx PMD.
Would I make sense to hide that check inside mlx implementation then?
BTW:


 int
+rte_eth_dev_is_removed(uint16_t port_id)
+{
+	struct rte_eth_dev *dev;
+	int ret;
+
+	RTE_ETH_VALID_PORTID_OR_ERR_RET(port_id, 0);
+
+	dev = &rte_eth_devices[port_id];
+
+	RTE_FUNC_PTR_OR_ERR_RET(*dev->dev_ops->is_removed, 0);

I'd says these 2 checks have to be swapped.
Konstantin

+
+	if (dev->state == RTE_ETH_DEV_REMOVED)
+		return 1;
+
