I don't think FreeBSD and Linux specific implementation is NOT required
as internal_config accessible in eal/common. example diff.

Do we need public API for this? it is only used by eal lib.
checkpatch complains the following too.
ERROR: symbol rte_eal_manual_probe_set is added in the DPDK_19.11
section, but is expected to be added in the EXPERIMENTAL section of
the version map
