  Because the eal interrupt framework can race when invoking the callback
and a separate unregister call, the test needs to accommodate the chance
that the two collide.  Do this by checking the return value of unregister
against the race-condition flag (EAGAIN).

Fixes: f1a6c22424ce ("app/test: update interrupts test")

NOTE: it's difficult to reproduce this race.  I tried a bit, but have
      only seen it sporadically.  In Travis environment, the CPU
      resource can be very limited and this test is quite racy.

Not too sure about this tag, but anyway, this is old enough to apply
to every stable releases we have.

Managed to reproduce it:

With this patch, my loop has been running for more than 10 minutes now.
