The rte_eth_dev_close() function now handles freeing resources for
devices (e.g., mac_addrs). There is no change in behaviour for AVP
devices since they do not currently free their dynamic memory; which was
a bug. To conform with the new close() behaviour we are asserting the
RTE_ETH_DEV_CLOSE_REMOVE flag so that rte_eth_dev_close() releases
all device related dynamic memory.
