[PATCH 1/1] tap: fix write-after-free and double free of intr_handle

[Quentin Armitage <quentin@armitage.org.uk>]

rte_pmd_tun/tap_probe() allocates pmd->intr_handle in
eth_dev_tap_create() and it should not be freed until
rte_pmd_tap_remove() is called.

Inspection of tap_rx_intr_vec_set() shows that the call to
tap_tx_intr_vec_uninstall() was calling rte_intr_instance_free() but
tap_tx_intr_vec_install() can then be immediately called, and this then
uses pmd->intr_handle without it being reallocated.

This commit moves the call of rte_intr_instance_free() from
tap_tx_intr_vec_uninstall() to rte_pmd_tap_remove().
