We have discovered some race conditions when using the port iterator

The work was done mostly with failsafe but some bugs could
be reproduced with other drivers.
These 11 patches are fixing all these issues.
The PMDs are modified to call a new function after probing each port.
v2 (address Gaetan comments):
* rename rte_eth_dev_allocated_lock_free to rte_eth_dev_allocated_nolock
* do not use uint32_t for avoiding port id iteration overflow
(should be fixed separately with BUILD_BUG_ON)
Quick survey:
Do you think it is too late to merge these fixes in 18.05?
Or do you agree that these bugs really deserve to be fixed
by this series in 18.05-rc3?
I have only questions and some review notes about 10/11 patch only.
I think the series should be included in 18.05-rc3.
