No, the bus layer does not know the ethdev ports created. A lot of drivers are not changed because they use a high level helper rte_eth_dev_pci_generic_probe or rte_eth_dev_create. For others, it is my comment in the commit log: Note that the helper rte_eth_dev_create() could be used more, especially for vdevs, avoiding some code duplication in PMDs.
