This ABI changes to remove iomem and ioport mapping in igb_uio. The
purpose of this changes was to fix a bug: when DPDK app crashes,
those devices by igb_uio are not stopped either DPDK PMD driver or
igb_uio driver.
Then it has been pointed out by Stephen Hemminger that it has
backward compatibility issue: cannot run old version DPDK on
modified igb_uio.
However, we still have not figure out a new way to fix this bug
without this change. Let's postpone this deprecation announcement
in case this change cannot be avoided.
