[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v5 07/26] eal: Signal error when CPU isn't supported

[Aaron Conole]

It's now possible to gracefully exit the application, or for
applications which support non-dpdk datapaths working in concert with
DPDK datapaths, there no longer is the possibility of exiting for
unsupported CPUs.
