From: Jan Wickbom <jan.wick...@ericsson.com> Issue:
Vhost user socket addresses left in /var/run/openvswitch. This will lead to failure to add vhost user ports with names that already exist in this directory. When there is a failure to add a vhost user socket file descriptor to the file descriptor set using fdset_add() in rte_vhost_driver_register() the address bound to the socket is not released. Solution: Add unlink of the file path corresponding to the socket address.
