Following various issues seen in deployments that involved mlx5 devices,
here is a proposal to disable DPDK initial device probing.

Changing this as the default behavior should be fine as OVS relies on
hotplugs for many years now.
But in case something gets broken, keep an option to restore the
original behavior.
