In multi-process scenario, the secondary process does not initialize the queue
state in the 'ports' variable, and the ethdev's queue state may be changed by
any other process, which causes 'ports' queue state of per-process and ethdev's 
queue state are inconsistent. Therefore, getting the queue state from ethdev is a
feasible way which I can think of.
