[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] lib: fix write unlock during ring creation

In rte_efd_create() write lock has already been unlocked
before ring creation itself.
So second unlock after the ring creation has been removed
and added freeing of tail queue entry and efd table.

Fixes: 56b6ef874f80 ("efd: new Elastic Flow Distributor library")
