Last time I checked, I overcame this error by not using the tarball but 
by simply cloning the dpdk git repo and checking out the v1.7.0-rc4 tag. 
For example:

git clone git://dpdk.org/dpdk
git checkout v1.7.0-rc4
git checkout -b dpdk1.7.0-rc4  <---- the branch name is just an example, 
you could decide on any other name as you see fit.

My machine info:

3.11.0-20 kernel, ubuntu 12.04, gcc 4.6.3

 From the v1.7.0-rc4 tag, viewing 
lib/librte_eal/linuxapp/kni/ethtool/igb/kcompat.h:3848, you could see:

<snip>
#if ( LINUX_VERSION_CODE < KERNEL_VERSION(3,14,0) )
#if (!(RHEL_RELEASE_CODE && RHEL_RELEASE_CODE >= RHEL_RELEASE_VERSION(7,0)))
#ifdef NETIF_F_RXHASH
#define PKT_HASH_TYPE_L3 0
static inline void
skb_set_hash(struct sk_buff *skb, __u32 hash, __always_unused int type)
{
     skb->rxhash = hash;
}
#endif /* NETIF_F_RXHASH */
#endif /* < RHEL7 */
#endif /* < 3.14.0 */
<snip>
