There is also an usage of ixgbe ID for the broken bypass API.

Sharing those PCI ids outside of the drivers was really a wrong idea.
So this a plan to get rid of them:

1/ remove need in PCI autotest (done: http://dpdk.org/commit/1dbba165)
2/ move PCI ids in bnx2x, bnxt, e1000, enic, fm10k, i40e, virtio, vmxnet3
3/ remove KNI ethtool (only igb/ixgbe support)
4/ remove bypass API or move it to ixgbe specific API
5/ move remaining PCI ids in igb and ixgbe drivers

Please driver maintainers, move your PCI ids in your drivers as soon as
possible. Thanks
