When the forward ports are changed either by new portlist\portmask configurations or by a port detachment, all the old forward streams are freed and new streams are allocated to be aligned with the new forward ports.
If the number of the forward ports drops to 0, there is an attempt to wrongly allocate 0 memory for the streams. Skip the streams memory allocation if no forward ports are configured.
