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.
