[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] eal: fail eal when no hugepages were found

[Emmanuel Roullit]

Found with clang static analysis:
lib/librte_eal/linuxapp/eal/eal_memory.c:1004:11:
warning: Call to 'malloc' has an allocation size of 0 bytes
tmp_hp = malloc(nr_hugepages * sizeof(struct hugepage_file));
         ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The --no-huge case, where nr_hugepages would be 0
as well, is handled earlier.

Fixes: 5e823a451261 ("ethdev: remove some VF functions")
