/build/lib/librte_eal/linuxapp/kni/igb_main.c:2317:21: error: initialization

^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I am sure Ferruh Yigit will fix it.
Which raises a couple of questions:
1. Why is DPDK still keeping KNI support for Intel specific ethtool
functionality.
This always breaks, is code bloat, and means a 3rd copy of base code
(Linux, DPDK PMD, + KNI)
2. Why is KNI not upstream?
If not acceptable due to security or supportablity then why does it still
exist?
3. If not upstream, then maintainer should track upstream kernel changes and
fix DPDK before
kernel is released. The ABI is normally set early in the rc cycle weeks
before release.
