dmesg for one BUG it caused

KNI ioctl functions copy data from userspace lib, and this interface of kmod is not compatible indeed. If the user use incompatible rte_kni.ko, corruption is detected in struct rte_kni_device_info.

It could cause a BUG in librte_kni.ko and there's no measure to restore kni function without reboot. The related EAL thread also vanishes.
