Should this perhaps be fixed in all drivers, not just ixgbe/igb? Is this 
safe to do in multiprocess? I'm not too well versed in ethdev mechanics 
when it comes to multiprocess, presumably the application itself is 
responsible for synchronizing access to ports, so freeing the resources 
should be OK?
