Is there a way this can happen? If not I suggest remove the check.

+1 for the check.
But what it does when return "-1", not send a message at all? If so would it be
better to send and error message back instead of waiting the receiver to timeout?

Since there is dynamic check above for "RTE_MP_MAX_FD_NUM", we can remove this
assert I think.

Same for this assert, we can remove it.
And as syntax, please keep the empty line before next block.
