ethdev: synchronize port allocation

Browse Source 
Ethernet port allocation was not thread safe, means 2 threads which tried
to allocate a new port at the same time might get an identical port
identifier and caused to memory overwrite.
Actually, all the port configurations were not thread safe from ethdev
point of view.

The port ownership mechanism added to the ethdev is a good point to
redefine the synchronization rules in ethdev:

1. The port allocation and port release synchronization will be
   managed by ethdev.
2. The port usage synchronization will be managed by the port owner.
3. The port ownership synchronization will be managed by ethdev.

Add port allocation synchronization to complete the new rules.
