This is a library change you should cc all PMD owners while sending patch.

Who will release the queue pair already setup by primary in the first place?
Currently, all queues are setup by primary and secondary uses them.
So if a queue is re-initialized by secondary, and if it is being used in
primary process,
Wont that drop packets abruptly if the queue is re-initialized?
Also, I see register API but not deregister.
