Secondary process doesn't properly attach to the rte_eth_device
initialized by the primary process.

Accessing device from secondary process (e.g. via rte_eth_rx_burst),
causes process to crash. because rte_eth_dev_data is not properly set.

The issue was flood by commit 7f95f78a8aea6161b824288bdeb1265798adca29
(clear data when allocating device), which now clears rte_eth_dev_data
entry.
So, most of the rte_eth_dev_data fields are not initialized.
For pci devices these fields are initialized  by rte_eth_dev_pci_probe
->eth_dev_attach_secondary().
However, for virtio-user virtio_user_pmd_probe() is called instead of
rte_eth_dev_pci_probe().
To fix it:  Allow non-pci drivers call to dev_attach_secondary() and
call it (for secondary process) from virtio_user_pmd_probe.

Firstly, two minor comments:

- A fix path needs a fixline (check dpdk.org/dev for HOWTO)

- It fixes a bug in former releases, thus it need be picked into a stable
  release. Then you need add following just before you Signed-off-by:

Yes, that's what it returns on success. You also need to add the case
when it fails.

17.02 is released, you should add a new table for 17.05 and add it there.


Besides, I would suggest you to split this patch into two:

- one for exporting rte_eth_dev_attach_secondary
- another for fixing the bug

Secondary process doesn't properly attach to the rte_eth_device
initialized by the primary process.

Accessing device from secondary process (e.g. via rte_eth_rx_burst),
causes process to crash. because rte_eth_dev_data is not properly set.

The issue was flood by
'commit 7f95f78a8aea ("ethdev: clear data when allocating device")'
which now clears rte_eth_dev_data entry.

So, most of the rte_eth_dev_data fields are not initialized.
For pci devices these fields are initialized  by rte_eth_dev_pci_probe
->eth_dev_attach_secondary().
However, for virtio-user virtio_user_pmd_probe() is called instead of
rte_eth_dev_pci_probe().
To fix it:  Allow non-pci drivers call to dev_attach_secondary() and
call it (for secondary process) from virtio_user_pmd_probe.
