During MTU set (kni_change_mtu) sample application setup queues, which
can free and re-allocate queues.
Meanwhile sample application keeps continues in Rx/Tx burst calls in
different threads, which may cause crash during queue setup.

Pausing application Rx/Tx calls before MTU set and starts it back
afterwards.
