  The error path was calling rte_eth_dev_release_port() function,
which frees eth_dev->data->dev_private, and then tries to free
pmd->intr_handle, which causes the use after free issue.

The free can be moved to before the release function is called.

Fixes: d61138d4f0e ("drivers: remove direct access to interrupt handle")
