examples/vhost: print error logs on failure

When the specified cores and memory lie on different NUMA socket with
physical NIC, vhost fails to set up Rx queue, and exits without any
hints. This could leads to confusion of users.

This patch fixes it by adding some error messages when calling ether
APIs returns errors.
