doc: remove outdated deprecation notices

Browse Source 
Some VFIO functions have been exported without any rename,
thus no breakage.

The struct eth_driver has been removed, but rte_pci_driver
is still used in rte_cryptodev_driver.

Fixes: a016873eb3c2 ("vfio: export utility functions in map file")
Fixes: 9dca21fb80b6 ("ethdev: remove ethdev driver")

targets release 17.05.
* vfio: Some functions are planned to be exported outside librte_eal in 17.05.
VFIO APIs like ``vfio_setup_device``, ``vfio_get_group_fd`` can be used by
subsystem other than EAL/PCI. For that, these need to be exported symbols.
Such APIs are planned to be renamed according to ``rte_*`` naming convention
and exported from librte_eal.
* The VDEV subsystem will be converted as driver of the new bus model.
It will imply some EAL API changes in 17.05.
* ``eth_driver`` is planned to be removed in 17.05. This currently serves as
a placeholder for PMDs to register themselves. Changes for ``rte_bus`` will
provide a way to handle device initialization currently being done in
``eth_driver``. Similarly, ``rte_pci_driver`` is planned to be removed from
