Currently, there are coverity defect warnings as blow:
Coverity issue:
  In nic_stats_clear function:
    CID 290021 (#1 of 1): Argument cannot be negative (NEGATIVE_RETURNS)
    5. negative_returns: ret is passed to a parameter that cannot be
       negative.

    CID 289974 (#1 of 1): Argument cannot be negative (NEGATIVE_RETURNS)
    6. negative_returns: ret is passed to a parameter that cannot be
       negative.

  In nic_xstats_clear function:
    CID 289985 (#1 of 1): Argument cannot be negative (NEGATIVE_RETURNS)
    5. negative_returns: ret is passed to a parameter that cannot be
       negative.

    CID 289850 (#1 of 1): Argument cannot be negative (NEGATIVE_RETURNS)
    6. negative_returns: ret is passed to a parameter that cannot be
       negative.

This patch fixes them by passing '-ret' to the function strerror() when ret
is negative.

Fixes: af75078fece3 ("first public release")
Fixes: 9eb974221f44 ("app/testpmd: fix statistics after reset")
