[dpdk-stable] [PATCH 2/2] net/ice: fix leak on thread termination

[David Marchand]

A terminated pthread should be joined or detached so that its associated
resources are released.

The "ice-reset-<vf_id>" threads are used to service some reset task in the
background, but they are never joined by the thread that created them.
The easiest solution is to detach new threads.
