[dpdk-dev,v2] eal: fix unchecked return value from library
Commit Message
Fix issue reported by Coverity.
Coverity ID 13194
The function returns a value that indicates an error condition. If this
is not checked, the error condition may not be handled correctly.
In pci_vfio_mp_sync_thread: Value returned from a library function is not
checked for errors before being used. This value may indicate an error condition.
Fixes: 2f4adfad0a69 ("vfio: add multiprocess support")
v2:
Changed ERR to WARNING because it has no real impact on the application
usability
