I wouldn't worry so much about the duplicated data, so long as the ethdev APIs only
have to look for the data in a single place when necessary. [Some data may be naturally
present in the pci_dev structure, for instance, and then be copied by the driver into
the common ethdev structure. If however, that copy and duplication can be avoided,
great!]
