[PATCH] net/iavf: fix crash on closing representor ports

Since the representor port needs to access the resources of the
associated DCF when it is closed. Therefore, the correct close
port operation is to close all the representor ports first, and
then close the associated DCF port.

If the DCF port is closed before the representor port on pmd exit.
This will result in accessing freed resources and eventually a
core dump will occur.

This patch fixes this issue by notifying all presentor ports
that DCF is not accessible when the DCF port is closed.
And when the presentor port is closed, it determines if the DCF
resources are accessible. If it can't be accessed, it will
report an error and return.

Fixes: 5674465a32c8 ("net/ice: add DCF VLAN handling")
Fixes: 295968d17407 ("ethdev: add namespace")
Fixes: da9cdcd1f372 ("net/ice: fix crash on representor port closing")
