The TAP driver does not initialize all the elements of the rte_flow
structure. This can lead to crash in rte_flow_destroy.

(gdb) where
    flow=0x100e99280, error=0x0)
    at drivers/net/tap/tap_flow.c:1514

(gdb) p remote_flow
$1 = (struct rte_flow *) 0x6b6b6b6b6b6b6b6b

Which is here:
static int
tap_flow_destroy_pmd(struct pmd_internals *pmd,
		     struct rte_flow *flow,
		     struct rte_flow_error *error)
{
	struct rte_flow *remote_flow = flow->remote_flow;
...
	if (remote_flow) {
		remote_flow->msg.nh.nlmsg_flags = NLM_F_REQUEST | NLM_F_ACK;

Simplest fix is to use rte_zmalloc() so remote_flow and other fields
are always set at zero.

Not sure why you copied Pascal (I'd say he stopped working on dpdk 2 years ago).
Please use the devtools/get-maintainer.sh script.
Thanks.

Both 'rte_malloc' & 'rte_zmalloc' should be zeroing the allocated memory, unless
MALLOC_DEBUG config option set [1], if this is not the case the issue can be
still valid after this change.

Malloc debug poisons memory to find bugs like this.

Fair enough, if that is the intention use 'rte_zmalloc' to clarify it.
