  In rte_efd_create() write lock has already been unlocked
before ring creation itself.
So second unlock after the ring creation has been removed
and added freeing of tail queue entry and efd table.

Changes do not have free of  tailq entry, so remove the mention of it from commit message.

Undo this change. Unrelated.

Other than these looks ok.

No, heading should have "efd:"
When in doubts, please look at the git history.
