There is no reason to mark this as inline. It is not in fast path.
Let compiler decide.

Use strtoul() to allow checking for invalid number.
Seems like the parsing here is following the parsing code pattern
that could use strtok_r.

Minor nit, port should be printed with %u since it is unsigned.
Lots of testpmd code gets this wrong, and compiler doesn't care.

It is clearer to use an if statement in this case.
Also, better to write positive rather than negative logic.

	if (hairpin_multiport_mode)
		return setup_mapped_hairpin_queues(pi);
	else
		return setup_legacy_hairpin_queus(pi, p_pi, cnt_pi);
