[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] eal: fix unchecked return value from library

[Daniel Mrzyglod]

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")
