[PATCH] eal/linux: skip attaching to external memory chunk

[Deepak Khandelwal]

when secondary process is initialized(rte_eal_init),
external memroy segments should not be attached.
These segments will be attached by explicitly invoking
rte_malloc_heap_memory_attach API

Fixes: ff3619d6244b ("malloc: allow attaching to external memory chunks")
