[PATCH v2] net/vdev: fix insert vdev core dump

[Mingjin Ye <mingjinx.ye@intel.com>]

In secondary processes, insert_vdev() may be called multiple times on the
same device due to multi-process hot-plugging of the vdev bus and EAL
parameters to add the same vdev.

In this case, when rte_devargs_insert() is called, the devargs->name
reference will be invalidated because rte_devargs_insert() destroys the
just-allocated devargs and replaces the pointer from the devargs list.
As a result, the reference to devargs->name stored in dev->device.name
will be invalid.

This patch fixes the issue by setting the device name after calling
rte_devargs_insert().
