Currently dpdk lcore args for DPDK EAL init can be generated or it
can be written directly by the user through dpdk-extra.
If dpdk-extra does not contain '-l' or '-c', a '-l' argument with
a core list for DPDK EAL init will be generated.
The '--lcores' argument should also be checked, as if it is used in
dpdk-extra, a '-l' is still generated and that causes DPDK EAL init
to fail:
|00009|dpdk|INFO|EAL ARGS: ovs-vswitchd --lcores 0@18 --in-memory -l 0.
|00012|dpdk|ERR|EAL: Option -l is ignored, because (--lcore) is set!
Add check for '--lcores' in dpdk-extra config and don't add '-l' if
it is detected:
|00009|dpdk|INFO|EAL ARGS: ovs-vswitchd --lcores 0@8 --in-memory.
Fixes: 0a0f39df1d5a ("netdev-dpdk: Add support for DPDK 16.07")
