During review and verification of the patch created by Sarosh Arif:
"test_distributor: prevent memory leakages from the pool" I found out
that running distributor unit tests multiple times in a row causes fails.
So I investigated all the issues I found.
There are few synchronization issues that might cause deadlocks
or corrupted data. They are fixed with this set of patches for both tests
and librte_distributor library.
