ccf5fd6045 doc: warn about UIO not working with UEFI secure boot
Added notes to the documentation warning that if UEFI secure boot
is enabled the Linux kernel may disallow the use of UIO on the
system, and a suggested workaround of using the vfio-pci kernel
module instead of igb_uio or uio_pci_generic.

0db52e6694 doc: move kernel drivers to a new chapter
The UIO and VFIO sections should not be part of
the "Compiling the DPDK Target from Source" chapter,
as it is PMD specific and not true for all PMDs.

Instead, moving those sections to a new chapter
which include all kernel drivers being used along with
the different PMDs.
