When adding a DPDK port to ovs-vswitchd with DPDK, the vmxnet3 device
fails to activate due to mismatched magic number. This failure causes
following operations to run: start the port, stop the port,
reconfigure and re-start the port.
During reconfigure, if there is an existing memzone, driver will reuse
it. But reconfigure may request different number of Tx/Rx queues.
This results in a memzone with wrong size and potential invalid memory
access.
To fix this, free the memzone if found and reserve a new one.
