[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] failsafe: Bug fix to support secondary process attach to the device created by primary for RX and TX

Remove the vdev args check for secondary process which prevents the secondary from attaching
to the device created by the primary process via the hotplug framework. This check was removed
for other vdevs but was missed for failsafe.
