Hi Wenzhuo,
                   I understand your concern. I had to do this change
to support hot swap of SFP/SFP+ modules without restarting the DPDK
app. If we have some other mechanism in pipeline to support hot swap
of SFP/SFP+ modules, then my changes can be ignored. I just wanted to
share the changes which worked for me back to the community.

Regards,
Srini
