[Antonio] Hmm, unforturnately it doesn't work because rte_errno is
updated just in case an API call failed.
If an API call doesn't fail, then rte_errno is not updated and still contains 
an old value.
In fact I've seen cases where I requested a bigger MTU - so to force the creation 
of a new mempool - and I may have that even rte_pktmbuf_pool_create() is successful
and does create a new mempool, rte_errno is still EEXIST (=17) because it refers to a previous call to rte_pktmbuf_pool_create() that failed.

So, in netdev_dpdk_mempool_configure() even if 
	mp = dpdk_mp_get(...

is returning a valid mp pointer, I can't rely on rte_errno value to distinguish
a brand new mp from a pre-existing mp.
