When removing a device, the fail-safe checks that it is not within its
datapath before cleaning it.
When checking whether an Rx burst should be performed on a device, the
remove flag is not checked. Thus the port could still enter its datapath
and miss a removal round. Furthermore, there is a race between the
thread removing the device and the polling thread.
Check the remove flag before entering a sub-device Rx burst when in safe
mode. This check mitigates the aforementioned race condition.
