[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2] eal: fix check number of bytes from read function

v2:
-moved close(fd) just after read.
-when read() from fd we expect 8 bytes, so PFN_MASK_SIZE macro 
was introduced instead sizeof(uint64_t).
-removed errno print when read returns less than 8 bytes

In rte_mem_virt2phy: Value returned from a function and indicating the
number of bytes was ignored. This could cause a wrong pfn (page frame
number) mask read from pagemap file.
When read returns less than the number of sizeof(uint64_t) bytes,
function rte_mem_virt2phy returns error.

Coverity issue: 13212
Fixes: 40b966a211ab ("ivshmem: library changes for mmaping using
ivshmem").
