Protect against DPDK crash when allocation of listen fd >= 1023.
For events on fd:s >1023, the current implementation will trigger
an abort due to access outside of allocated bit mask.

Corrections would include:

  * Match fdset_add() signature in fd_man.c to fd_man.h
  * Handling of return codes from fdset_add()
  * Addition of check of fd number in fdset_add_fd()

---

The rationale behind the suggested code change is that,
fdset_event_dispatch() could attempt access outside of the FD_SET
bitmask if there is an event on a file descriptor that in turn
looks up a virtio file descriptor with a value > 1023.
Such an attempt will lead to an abort() and a restart of any
vswitch using DPDK.

A discussion topic exist in the ovs-discuss mailing list that can
provide a little more background:
