[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v4 01/10] devargs: introduce iterator

[Gaetan Rivet <gaetan.rivet@6wind.com>]

In preparation to making devargs_list private.

Bus drivers generally need to access rte_devargs pertaining to their
operations. This match is a common operation for bus drivers.

Add a new accessor for the rte_devargs list.
