Why would we make this optional in this way and expand the matrix of
different ways to build DPDK. To ask another way, why wouldn't a user
turn on GSO.

all these additional __vsym annotations looks like they belong in a
seperate patch, as they are fixing a bug and are not directly related to
adding LTO the build system.
