Sorry, I should have been clearer in my statement.
I meant, I didn't think eal_pci_vfio.o had anything of interest for the PMD tool and hence the mk files would have skipped over it in absence of a match.
I understand that PMDINFO would run on all files.

I thought of EAL_PMD_REGISTER_* but dropped it because for PCI_TABLE like macros, the name got really long (EAL_PMD_REGISTER_PCI_TABLE()).
Anyways, I will use RTE_PMD_REGISTER_* now and send another version.
