net/sfc: add init on attach
The setup and configuration of the PMD is not performance sensitive,
but is not thread safe either. It is possible that the multiple
read/writes during PMD setup and configuration could be corrupted
in a multi-thread environment. Since this is not performance
sensitive, the developer can choose to add their own layer to provide
thread-safe setup and configuration. It is expected that, in most
applications, the initial configuration of the network ports would be
done by a single thread at startup.
In the case of exception on the event queue, the event queue and
corresponding Rx/Tx queue should be restarted in the Rx/Tx queue
polling context. These operations require access to the device
control which should be serialized. The device level lock will do
the job.

net: remove dead driver names
Since commit b1fb53a39d88 ("ethdev: remove some PCI specific handling"),
rte_eth_dev_info_get() relies on dev->data->drv_name to report the driver

Having the pmds set driver_info->driver_name in the pmds is useless,
since ethdev overwrites it right after.
The only thing the pmd must do is:
- for pci drivers, call rte_eth_copy_pci_info() which then sets
data->drv_name
- for vdev drivers, manually set data->drv_name
At this stage, virtio-user does not properly report a driver name (fixed in
next commit).
