[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] ethdev: don't look for devices if none were found

[Anatoly Burakov]

Aside from avoiding doing useless work, this also fixes a segfault
when calling rte_eth_dev_get_port_by_name() whenever no devices
were found yet, and therefore rte_eth_dev_data wasn't yet allocated.

Fixes: 9c5b8d8b9feb ("ethdev: clean port id retrieval when attaching")
