[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 1/6] ethdev: fix device state on detach

[Gaetan Rivet <gaetan.rivet@6wind.com>]

The device state should be handled by the ether layer when possible.
Applications should not have to do it.

Not setting the state to UNUSED will make the port_id of the device
valid for all ether API functions, usually resulting in segfault.

Fixes: 284c908cc588 ("app/testpmd: request device removal interrupt")
