The functions rte_service_may_be_active(), rte_service_lcore_attr_get(),
and rte_service_attr_reset_all() were introduced nearly a year ago in DPDK
18.08. They can be considered non-experimental for the 19.08 release.

rte_service_may_be_active() is used by the sw PMD, and this commit allows
it to not need any experimental API.

v2: add allow-experimental flag back to eventdev, which still uses an
    experimental cryptodev API

It seems we want to return errors via the return code.
Error codes from errno.h are int so we are fine with int only.

What is the reason why this is returning a int32_t ?

Simply to match the other (non-experimental) rte_service_* functions that 
return int32_t.
