[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] ethdev: adjust error log level

DPDK API does not propagate the reason of device allocation failure
from rte_eth_dev_allocate() up to the DPDK application (e.g. Open
vSwitch).
Log level of associated log entries was changed to warning. So user
can find additional details in log files also in production systems,
where debug messages cannot be turned on.
