Testpmd application will crash in fclose() upon quit after running
the below command.
"sudo gdb --args ./x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc/app/testpmd -c 0xf0 -n 4
--vdev 'eth_pcap0,tx_iface=enp1s0f1,rx_pcap=/tmp/test.pcap' --
--port-topology=chained -i"
The reason is, pcap vdev creation with tx stream type as "iface"
as in above command don't need member ''dumpers'' of
"struct tx_pcaps", hence will not have memory allocated.
But contains a garbage values, as local object of struct tx_pcaps
is not initialized to 0 inside rte_pmd_pcap_dev_init().
So calling pcap_dump_close() on dumper as part of eth_dev_stop()
is causing segfault in fclose().
Fix is to initialize local object of struct tx_pcaps to 0.
Also initialize local object of struct rx_pcaps to 0.
So during eth_dev_stop(), pcap_dump_close() will not be called if dumper
is NULL.
