  The function call to get the device info can return negative values on
failure, which was previously unchecked. This return value is now
checked and the function exits on failure.

Coverity issue: 350361
Fixes: c8e6ceecebc1 ("examples/ioat: add new sample app for ioat driver")

We had the same patch proposed in 19.11 timeframe that got deferred to 20.02.
https://patchwork.dpdk.org/patch/63375/
Will mark https://patchwork.dpdk.org/patch/65563/ as rejected.


Besides, we have a patch with the exact same subject than this one.
https://patchwork.dpdk.org/patch/65562/

A title must (briefly) describe what functional impact the patch has.
