If the flow-director queue is stopped at some point during the running of an application, the shutdown procedure for the port issues an error as it tries to stop the queue a second time, and fails to do so. We can eliminate this error by setting the tail-register pointer to NULL on stop, and checking for that condition in subsequent stop calls. Since the register pointer is set on start, any restarting of the queue will allow a stop call to progress as normal.
