[PATCH v1 1/1] eal: warn user when lcore cpuset includes multiple sockets

[Anatoly Burakov]

Currently, it is allowed to specify a cpuset for lcores such that it
will include physical cores from different NUMA nodes. This has an
effect of setting `rte_socket_id()` for that lcore to SOCKET_ID_ANY,
so add a warning about it.
