I think that in theory not resetting HW at process termination can cause a problem.
Something like that:
- DPDK app has HW RX/TX queues active with armed RXDs, but the link is idle (no packets are flying). 
- DPDK app terminates abnormally.
- user deletes DPDK hugepages files.
- Hugepage memory that was used by DPDK for RXDs/data buffers are given to other app (or kernel).
- Packet arrives -a s HW is still active - it will do a write to the RXD and data-buffer. 
- Silent memory corruption.

Saying that, I don't think we can completely eliminate that problem from user-space code -
as not process signals can be handled. 
>From other side - our whole concept is to move away from custom kernel modules...
Though we probably can make it less possible to happen - create a termination handler,
that  would try to reset all active HW.
And make sure it is called atexit and all catchable signals that cause process termination.
But I don' t think it is a good idea to duplicate such code in each and every sample app.
I think it should be in the librte_eal, and yes - it is a subject of a separate patch/discussion :)
