The dpdk_mp_get() function can return a NULL pointer which leads to a segfault when a mempool cannot be created. The lack of a return value check for the function netdev_dpdk_mempool_configure() when called in netdev_dpdk_reconfigure() can result in a segfault also as a NULL pointer for the mempool will be passed to rte_eth_rx_queue_setup().
Fix this by adding appropriate NULL pointer and return value checks to dpdk_mp_get() and netdev_dpdk_reconfigure(), also flag when a memory configuration error occurs in dpdk_vhost_reconfigure_helper().
