[PATCH v3 2/4] net/dpaa2: clear active VDQ state when freeing Rx queues

From: Maxime Leroy <maxime at leroys.fr>

When using the prefetch Rx path (dpaa2_dev_prefetch_rx), the driver keeps
track of one outstanding VDQCR command per DPIO portal in the global
rte_global_active_dqs_list[] array. Each queue_storage_info_t also stores
the active result buffer and portal index:

  qs->active_dqs
  qs->active_dpio_id

Before issuing a new pull command, dpaa2_dev_prefetch_rx() checks for an
active entry and spins on qbman_check_command_complete() until the
corresponding VDQCR completes.

On port close / hotplug remove, dpaa2_free_rx_tx_queues() frees all
per-lcore queue_storage_info_t structures and their dq_storage[] buffers,
but never clears the global rte_global_active_dqs_list[] entries. After a
detach/attach sequence (or "del/add" in grout), the prefetch Rx path
still sees an active entry for the portal and spins forever on a stale dq
buffer that has been freed and will never be completed by hardware. In
gdb, dq->dq.tok stays 0 and dpaa2_dev_prefetch_rx() loops in:

  while (!qbman_check_command_complete(get_swp_active_dqs(idx)))
      ;

Fix this by clearing the active VDQ state before freeing queue storage.
For each Rx queue and lcore, if qs->active_dqs is non-NULL, call
clear_swp_active_dqs(qs->active_dpio_id) and set qs->active_dqs to NULL.
Then dpaa2_queue_storage_free() can safely free q_storage and
dq_storage[].

After this change, a DPNI detach/attach sequence no longer leaves stale
entries in rte_global_active_dqs_list[], and the prefetch Rx loop does
not hang waiting for a completion from a previous device instance.

Reproduction:
  - grout:
      grcli interface add  port dpni.1 devargs fslmc:dpni.1
      grcli interface del  dpni.1
      grcli interface add  port dpni.1 devargs fslmc:dpni.1
    -> Rx was stuck in qbman_check_command_complete(), now works.

  - testpmd:
      dpdk-testpmd -n1 -a fslmc:dpni.65535 -- -i --forward-mode=rxonly
      testpmd> port attach fslmc:dpni.1
      testpmd> port start all
      testpmd> start
      testpmd> stop
      testpmd> port stop all
      testpmd> port detach 0
      testpmd> port attach fslmc:dpni.1
      testpmd> port start all
      testpmd> start
    -> Rx was hanging, now runs normal
