PATCH 1/1 failsafe: Bug fix for the secondary process RX-TX support

Remove the vdev args check for secondary process which prevents the secondary from attaching to the device created by the primary process via the hotplug framework. This check was removed for other vdevs but was missed for failsafe.

Fixes 4852aa8f6e21 ("drivers/net: enable hotplug on secondary process")
