[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2] bus/vmbus: Fix crash when handling packets in secondary process

[Jonathan Erb]

Have secondary processes construct their own copy of primary channel with
own mappings.

Remove vmbus_channel primary ptr from struct mapped_vmbus_resource as its
not used.

Populate virtual memory address "addr" in struct rte_mem_resource for
secondary processes as netvsc will attempt to reference it thus causing
a crash. It was initialized for primary processes but not for secondary.

v2:
* Remove unnecessary check for NULL pointer before call to rte_free() 
per reviwer comment.
