rte_eth_dev_find_free_port() found a free port by state checking.
The state field are in local process memory, so other DPDK processes
may get the same port ID because their local states may be different.
Replace the state checking by the ethdev port name checking,
so, if the name is an empty string the port ID will be detected as
unused.
Fixes: d948f596fee2 ("ethdev: fix port data mismatched in multiple process
model")
