  Hi, the real meat is in patch 1/2,

which fixes a segmentation fault in the OVS PMD thread when
resynchronizing with QEMU after the guest application has been killed
with SIGKILL.

This fixes an issue where the guest DPDK application is able
to crash the OVS process on the host.

Patch 2/2 is just an improvement in the current error handling.

For your review and comments,

Claudio
