The standard was introduced after the driver have been submitted, I
agree that a new way is present, but when it was introduced a
modification on the whole code though DPDK should have been done to
avoid mixed ways.

I prefer to have a single commit replacing the (void)foo by
__rte_unused, it will also help the backports to the stable branches.
