before supporting two drivers.

Removing PCI ID list to make igb_uio more similar to a generic driver
like vfio-pci or pci_uio_generic. This is done to make it easier for
the binding script to support multiple drivers.
Note that since igb_uio no longer has a PCI ID list, it can now be
bound to any device, not just those explicitly supported by DPDK. In
other words, it now behaves similar to PCI stub, VFIO and other generic
PCI drivers.
Therefore to bind a new device to igb_uio, the user will now have to
first write its PCI ID to "new_id" file inside the igb_uio driver
directory, and only then write the PCI ID to "bind". This is reflected
in changes to PCI binding script as well.
There's a weird behaviour of sysfs when a new device ID is added to
new_id. Subsequent writing to "bind" will result in IOError on
closing the file. This error is harmless but it triggers the
exception anyway, so in order to work around that, we check if the
device was actually bound to the driver before raising an error.

This commit removes trailing whitespace from lines in files. Almost all
files are affected, as the BSD license copyright header had trailing
whitespace on 4 lines in it [hence the number of files reporting 8 lines
changed in the diffstat].

In order to make this tool available among other system commands,
the name must be more specific.
