[LCM] The previous reason probably to keep consistent with
lsc_interrupt_setup. But I think it's reasonable to change to void.
I'm considering another thing is that does is necessary to have
condition rxq_interrupt_setup by intr_conf.rxq.
As even without it, we can manually turn on rxq interrupt by API
rte_eth_dev_rx_intr_enable.
