When device is being closed and tries to unregister interrupt callback,
there is a chance the handler is still active (called in context of
eal_intr_thread_main thread). If so the rte_intr_callback_unregister
returns -EAGAIN and keeps the handler registered, causing crash when
underlaying resourse is gone away.

This race condition may happen if event handling in application takes
a long time. We should check the return code of unregistering routine
and try again to unregister the handler. The diagnostic messages are
shown once a second, while trying to unregister.

Fixes: 028b2a28c3cb ("net/mlx5: update event handler for multiport IB devices")
