This must be from times 'rte_eth_dev_close()' not release all resources,
because there is already some code (in 'test_create_bonding_device()')
that covers re-running unit test.
So probably unit test was working when implemented but it is broken
either when 'rte_eth_dev_close()' updated or its implementation changed
in bonding PMD, can you please investigate it?

Why not use 'rte_eth_bond_free()', it is better than creating a
temporary bonding device just to close it?
Adding 'rte_eth_bond_free()' also requires updating
'test_create_bonding_device()' to allow creating device on each run.
And there are other bonding devices created during tests, they don't
break tests because they use 'bonding_port_id' global variable that is
increased in each run; should we close and remove them too here, to not
leak resources, what do you think?

Previously 'rte_eth_dev_close()' return type was void, but it is not
anymore, and since test is about closing bonding device, should we test
return value of the API?
