-* ABI changes are planned for struct rte_pci_id, i.e., add new field ``class``.
-  This new added ``class`` field can be used to probe pci device by class

-  rte_pci_device. The release 16.04 does not contain these ABI changes, but
-  release 16.07 will.

 * The xstats API and rte_eth_xstats struct will be changed to allow retrieval
