Why not just  use PATH_MAX here?

Hmm, are you aware that DPDK lcore id != CPU lcore id?
Might be better to use 'cpuid' name here?
Just to avoid confusion.

I don't think there is a need to put rte_msr_read/rte_msr_write() 
Definition into a header file and make them static inline.
Just normal external function definition seems sufficient here.

That's a a public API.
No need to coredump if one of the input parameters is invalid.

Might be better -EINVAL;
