[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 1/3] eal: remove useless checks for already probed device

[Thomas Monjalon <thomas@monjalon.net>]

The function eal_dev_hotplug_request_to_secondary() never returns
-EEXIST result. The case of already probed device is filtered out.

The test in __handle_secondary_request() was always true.
The test in rte_dev_probe() was never true, and that's fine not
returning -EEXIST if device is already attached in secondary processes.

Fixes: 494db286f37d ("eal: fix multi-process hotplug if attached in secondary")
