When rte_mp_request_async() succeeds on the secondary process path, the
dummy request is freed only if it was inserted into the queue. However,
when the actual request was sent successfully (nb_sent > 0), the dummy is
not used and the function returns without freeing it.
Free dummy before returning on the success path when it was not inserted
into the queue.
