Description: eal/linux: force iova-mode va with no-huge option
When using --no-huge option the iova-mode must be VA.
Physical address are not guaranteed to be persistent with out
hugepages. This change effectively makes "--no-huge" the same as
"--no-huge --iova-mode=va". When --no-huge is used setting --iova-mode=pa
will have no effect.
