Some parts of dpdk use their own management threads. Most of the time,

This patchset introduces a new wrapper for thread creation that does
the job automatically, avoiding code duplication.
v2:
* set affinity to master core if no core is off, as suggested by

This will need a rebase, as there were new pthreads added since this was
submitted. There are now two new threads in eal_common_proc.c, that i
know of.
