This patchset fixes an issue with VFIO where DPDK initialization could fail even if the user didn't want to use VFIO in the first place. Also, more verbose and descriptive error messages were added to VFIO code, for example distinguishing between a failed ioctl() call and an unsupported VFIO API version.
