The patch mentioned in the commit e73b7508fb58 ("INSTALL.DPDK: Mention

then this issue is not valid anymore.

-  vHost and QEMU v2.4.0+:
-  - For versions of QEMU v2.4.0 and later, it is currently not possible to
-    unbind more than one dpdkvhostuser port from the guest kernel driver
-    without causing the ovs-vswitchd process to crash. If this is a requirement
-    for your use case, it is recommended either to use a version of QEMU
-    between v2.2.0 and v2.3.1 (inclusive), or alternatively, to apply the
-    following patch to DPDK and rebuild:
-    http://dpdk.org/dev/patchwork/patch/7736/
-    This problem will likely be resolved in Open vSwitch at a later date, when
-    the next release of DPDK (which includes the above patch) is available and
-    integrated into OVS.
