In FreeBSD environment, nic_uio drivers do not support interrupts, rte_intr_callback_register() will fail to register interrupts. We can not make link status to change from down to up by interrupt callback. So we need to wait for the controller to acquire link when ports start. Through multiple tests, 5s should be enough.
