  The rte_eth_dev_owner_unset function is unusable because
it always returns -EINVAL. This is because the magic (unowned)
value is flagged as not valid.

Move the validation of owner into set and unset as
separate calls.

Fixes: 5b7ba31148a8 ("ethdev: add port ownership")

It's OK to raise an error when you do unset for unowned device.
It means that unset owner should be called for owned device.

Original code was broken. The following would always fail.

	rte_eth_dev_owner_new(&owner.id);
	sprintf(owner.name, "example");
	rte_eth_dev_owner_set(port_id, &owner);
	rte_eth_dev_owner_unset(port_id, owner.id);

That is because of:
	rte_eth_dev_owner_unset(port_id, owner_id)
		_rte_eth_dev_owner_set(port_id, owner_id, &new_owner)  << new_owner.id == RTE_ETH_DEV_NO_OWNER (0)


	if (!rte_eth_is_valid_owner_id(new_owner->id) &&  << new_owner->id == RTE_ETH_DEV_NO_OWNER (which is flagged as invalid)
	    !rte_eth_is_valid_owner_id(old_owner_id))
		return -EINVAL;

The failsafe driver never checks the return value, and therefore doesn't see that it never clears ownership.

But both should be invalid the new owner and the old owner(&&) to raise an EINVAL error.

In the aforementioned check above the old owner should be valid.

It looks rte_eth_dev_owner_unset() works, updating patch as rejected.

The issue was the incorrect log message, addressed in later patches.
