[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] vhost: fix unchecked return value of fstat

[Huawei Xie]

Value returned from fstat is not checked for errors before being used.
Fixes the coverity issue:

static uint64_t
get_blk_size(int fd)
{
	struct stat stat;

	fstat(fd, &stat);
	return (uint64_t)stat.st_blksize;
>>>  CID 107103 (#1 of 1): Unchecked return value from library (CHECKED_RETURN)
>>>  check_return: Calling fstat(fd, &stat) without checking return value.
>>>  This library function may fail and return an error code.

Fixes: 8f972312b8f4 ("vhost: support vhost-user")
