This logic is indeed identical to the logic of the "rte_ethtool_get_regs_len" API of Ethtool,
but the method of using the "rte_eth_dev_get_reg_info" API is the case. All users will have
similar code logic when using this API.

And use "rte_ethtool_get_regs_len" API here only reduces "buf_size = reg_info.length * reg_info.width;"
this logic. But at the same time, it introduces the dependence of example/ethtool in procinfo. The code in
example is not compiled by default, which seems not appropriate to import it in app/procinfo.

So, I think it is fine to keep this.

Agree, I will fix it in the next version.

Agree, I will fix it in the next version.
