[PATCH 3/3] net/vdev: fix insert vdev core dump

[Mingjin Ye]

Inserting a vdev device when the device arguments are already stored
in devargs_list, the rte_devargs_insert function replaces the supplied
new devargs with the found devargs and frees the new devargs. As a
result, the use of free devargs results in a core dump.

This patch fixes the issue by using valid devargs.
