From: Zhichao Zeng <zhichaox.zeng@intel.com>

The eal-intr-thread is not closed before exiting the main
thread. There is a small probability that when the
eal-intr-thread is about to use some pointers, the pointers
were just released in the process of exiting, which cause
the segment fault error caught by ASan.

Close the eal-intr-thread before exiting the mian thread
to avoid segment fault.

* [PATCH v5] lib/eal: fix segfaults in exiting

The 'eal-intr-thread' is not closed before memory cleanup in the process of
exiting. There is a small chance that the 'eal-intr-thread' is about to use
some pointers, the memory was just cleaned, which causes segfaults
caught by ASan.

This patch closes the 'eal-intr-thread' before memory cleanup in
'rte_eal_cleanup' to avoid segfaults, and adds a flag to avoid executing
'rte_eal_cleanup' in the child process which is forked to execut some
test cases(e.g. debug_autotest of dpdk-test).

Bugzilla ID: 1006
