  If the primary process has initialized all the queues to vector
pmd mode, the secondary process should not use scalar code path,
because the per queue data structures haven't been prepared for
that, e.g. txq->ops is for vector Tx rather than scalar Tx.

Why we need to check process type? What would happen if no changes made here?

If no change, then this function will re-set some fields of txq structure.
e.g.       for (i = 0; i < dev->data->nb_tx_queues; i++) {
            		txq = dev->data->tx_queues[i];
            		fm10k_txq_vec_setup(txq);
       	}
Though these fields would be re-set to the same value, it doesn't look good. In secondary, we just read the queues and do not write them.

Best Regards,
Xiao

Applied to dpdk-next-net/master, thanks.
