Applied to next-net-intel with some rewording. For example, although it
touches code in idpf driver, the patch is addressing limitations in cpfl,
so I've retitled it as "net/cpfl: make device checks more generic".
(Yes, check-git-log wants net/intel as prefix, but net/cpfl is more
accurate so ignore the tool's suggestion)
