The call order is:
rte_eal_set_log_func(logf);
...
rte_eal_init();
Because the rte_eal_init will call rte_eal_log_init, so set the struct
before rte_eal_init.
And the logs in `rte_eal_init` will also be redirected.

Looks like `rte_eal_log_init` is defined in Linux and Windows, and
Windows only redirects
the log to stderr. So Windows doesn't support this feature.
rte_openlog_stream has a higher priority than rte_eal_set_log_func.
If it isn't called, then 'rte_eal_set_log_func' call will work.
I will update the comments of this API.
Thanks.
