[dpdk-dev] examples/vhost: fix failure without hints
Commit Message
When the specified cores and memory lie on different numa socket with
physical NIC, vhost fails to set up rx queue, and exits without any
hints. This could leads to confusion of users.
This patch fixes it by adding some error messages when calling ether
APIs returns errors.
Fixes: 4796ad63ba1f ("examples/vhost: import userspace vhost application")

I will not call it a "fix", instead, it's an "enhancement" to me.

And since it's not a bug, it might be "Suggested-by: ...".

Applied to dpdk-next-virtio, with some commit log rewords.
Thanks.
