[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 1/5] net/ixgbevf: unregister irq handler when other interrupts not allowed.

When we bind the ixgbe VF (e.g 82599 card) to igb_uio and enable the
rx-interrupt, there will be more than one epoll_wait on intr_handle.fd.
One is in "eal-intr-thread" thread, and the others are in the thread
which call the "rte_epoll_wait". The problem is that sometiems
"eal-intr-thread" thread will process the rx interrupt, and then
rte_epoll_wait can't get the event any more, and the packets may be lost.

We should unregister the status interrupt handler in "eal-intr-thread"
thread and the ixgbe pf is in the same case.
