  Before these patches, if an application was configured to run with
HW Steering and E-Switch enabled, on EAL cleanup the assertion in
mlx5_dev_hw_global_release() was triggered - PD release was unsuccessful.

Root cause of this issue was linked to an inability to destroy RTC objects
used internally in mlx5, in HW Steering implementation.
PMD was unable to destroy RTC objects, because of dangling
references to those objects. More specifically, if all matchers
connected to a single flow table were created, this flow table
was still referencing RTC objects when theye were being destroyed.

This patch series fixes that behavior.
Matcher uninitilization is updated to remove the references to RTC objects
from flow table object if the last matcher related to the flow
table was destroyed.
