[Hemant] I thought about it but I did not do it for following reasons.
1. If the memzone is not freed, It will not be initialized next time due to
following check in init routine.
memzone = rte_memzone_lookup(RTE_METRICS_MEMZONE_NAME);
if (memzone != NULL)
return;
2. Most applications have very weak error handling in de-init/cleanup parts.
Having said that. It can be changed to do it only on the success of
rte_memzone_free
