  If a vhost device is closed before eth_dev_configure is done
to the device, internal resources allocated to the device
would not be freed. This patch fixes it.

Fixes: 3d01b759d267 ("net/vhost: delay driver setup")
Cc: stable@dpdk.org

This fixes an issue with the patch you backported for 18.11. Is the
issue also present in the backported version?

If so, this patch is not in upstream dpdk or gone through validation. So
the choices are,

1. revert your patches from 18.11
2. go ahead on stable without this patch
3. delay until this patch is in master (but not until validated) and
then backport to stable

Itsuro/Maxime, what do you think?

thanks,
Kevin.

I think you should drop Itsuro patches for now, as long as this patch is
not in master. Secondary process was broken for several revisions in
Vhost, so it is better to keep it broken for now than risking
regressions on primary process support.

If this patch is in master before the next 18.11 is done, then we can
pick all the patches.

Thanks,
Maxime

I agree, vhost primary is too well used to take risks on regression
while there are still some outstanding issues being resolved with these
patches for secondary process.

Patches reverted.

Yes, we can do that.
