Hey Ilya,

Calling it before 'dp_netdev_destroy_all_pmds()' can also allow the update
of 'dpif-netdev' flows' stats before they are gone.

Also, since the pmd thread recreation change is deemed big configuration
change and enable/disable upcall is only one locking operation each, so I
think it will not matter very much.  Would like to hear your concerns,

Thanks,
Alex Wang,
