[dpdk-stable] [PATCH 1/4] service: fix memory leak with new function

From: Vipin Varghese <vipin.varghese at intel.com>

Backported fix from upstream commit:
da23f0a service: fix memory leak with new function

The rte_service_finalize routine checks if service is initialized
or not. If yes; releases internal memory for services and lcore
states are freed. This routine is to be invoked at end of application
termination.

Fixes: 21698354c832 ("service: introduce service cores concept")

As I only backported, I didn't add signoff - its Vipin's code.
If that's not correct, please advise and I can update it.
