Why using memcpy and memcmp instead of simple assignment and comparison?
Direct assignment and comparison would work too. I did see some similar cases
though using memcpy for rte_pci_addr (which is similar to rte_pci_id) in
linux/pci_uio.c and linux/pci_vfio.c. It wasn't clear to me if direct
assignment/comparison for structures was the norm for DPDK.
I'm happy to send a v2 with a direct assignment/comparison though if that is
preferred.
