As rte_eth_rx_queue_count() returns signed value to represent
the error cases but internally invoked callback is returning
unsigned value. Hence unnecessary type conversion is done.
To avoid this typecasting from signed to unsigned, fixed
return type of callback functions.

Note for other reviewers:
The tx_queue_count callback already returns int, and doesn't need to be updated.

IMHO API consistency vs Tx is more important here. Moreover, since it
helps to avoid weird type casts in the next patch, it proves that it is
a step in a right direction. Basically I see no point to keep the
difference in return value of ethdev API and driver callback, it does
not add value. If driver callback always successful it can simply always
return non-negative values - that's it.
