What DPDK version is this?

In any case, i don't think there are specific circumstances in which 
this is likely or unlikely to happen. Anything could be occupying those 
addresses - libraries, code, more libraries, more code... The address is 
taken, and EAL reports it. If you're not going to use secondary 
processes, it can be ignored. If you are, well, truth is there's little 
you can do to fix it :( This is just a byproduct of how our secondary 
processes work.
