[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v3] service: fix memory leak by rte_service_init

[Vipin Varghese <vipin.varghese@intel.com>]

The rte_service_finalize routine checks if service is initialized
or not. If yes; releases internal memory for services and lcore
states are freed. This routine is to be invoked at end of application
termination.

Fixes: 21698354c832 ("service: introduce service cores concept")
