Hello.

Function rte_eth_dev_attach can return false positive result.
It happens because rte_eal_pci_probe_one returns zero if no driver is found for 
the device:
ret = pci_probe_all_drivers(dev);
if (ret < 0)
        goto err_return;
return 0;
(pci_probe_all_drivers returns 1 in that case)

For example, it can be easily reproduced by trying to attach virtio device, 
managed by kernel driver.

I think it should be:
ret = pci_probe_all_drivers(dev);
if (ret)
        goto err_return;
return 0;
Best regards,
Igor
