[LCM] As it not only parse cpuset but also used for lcore set, so 'eal_parse_cpuset' is not accurate.
The set/elem here identify for a single number (e.g. 1), a number range (e.g. 4-6) or a group (e.g. (3,4-8,9) ).
I'll reword the comment for better understand. Thanks.

[LCM] Sorry for that, will fix it.
