Please, be explicit in the ethdev API documentation.

IMHO, it is inconvenient since typically it is interesting
what happens nearby current position.

Yes, that's true, but easy to do in the driver as well. It would
be especially important if ID semantics changes.

All applicable generic checks must be done on ethdev level to avoid code
duplication and missing checks in PMDs.
