In case of plugged out device, the fail-safe PMD uses failsafe_rx_burst
function for packet receiving.
This function iterates over the present sub-devices until it
receives a traffic from one of them or they are all cannot receive
packets.
The corrupted code didn't advance the sub-device pointer when the
sub-device was not present and caused to infinite loop.
Advance the sub-device pointer also in plugged-out sub-device case.
