DPDK: vswitchd failure logs with osp10 & ovs29 can be ignored at the start of deployment

From ovs2.7 onwards, vswitchd will be restarted when dpdk-init flag is set to true. In the current version of the first-boot, we are enabling dpdk before setting the kernel args and reboot. So, huge pages will not be available. It will fail the vswitchd restart during the dpdk-init. But later when kernel args are applied and rebooted, it will all work fine. And all the ovs configurations will be applied correctly. But this causes atleast a few set of logs related to vswtichd failure before the restart. Though this does not harm, we need to be aware of this behavior as analyzing logs will create questions around it.
