patch 'net/tap: remove log when running without multiprocess' has been queued to stable release 25.11.1

[Kevin Traynor]

Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 25.11.1

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 03/02/26. So please
shout if anyone has objections.

Also note that after the patch there's a diff of the upstream commit vs the
patch applied to the branch. This will indicate if there was any rebasing
needed to apply to the stable branch. If there were code changes for rebasing
(ie: not only metadata diffs), please double check that the rebase was
correctly done.

Queued patches are on a temporary branch at:
https://github.com/kevintraynor/dpdk-stable

This queued commit can be viewed at:
https://github.com/kevintraynor/dpdk-stable/commit/5467e7fbe48fe8024a26a452b2405576c732bc4e

Thanks.

Kevin

Subject: [PATCH] net/tap: remove log when running without multiprocess

[ upstream commit d26d69a054012f77b535da77ee78c108646ee01c ]

In case DPDK is started with multiprocess disabled (like in OVS), there
is no reason to log an error on multiprocess aspects.

Note: the only caller of this helper does not check the return value.

Fixes: c36ce7099c21 ("net/tap: fix to populate FDs in secondary process")
