  rte_kvargs_process() should return error if the key
is not found in the kvlist or kvlist is NULL.

Minor documentation changes and update for when an
error is returned.

Looks like an API breakage for me...
Could you probably explain why do you think it is necessary?

To me it is not an ABI breakage only fixing the routine to return the correct status.

For the no key found surely seems like an error to me, but I guess you can always require someone to call the rte_kvargs_count() API first which is not stated any place.

As for the kvlist being null that is an error IMO and returning success is not valid.

But to save a huge discussion I rejected the patch in patchwork for now.

Not necessary, it could be an optional one.

Yep.
