With GCC 4.4.7 from CentOS 6.5, the following errors arise:

lib/librte_pmd_ixgbe/ixgbe_rxtx.c: In function 'ixgbe_dev_rx_queue_setup':
lib/librte_pmd_ixgbe/ixgbe_rxtx.c:2509: error: missing initializer
lib/librte_pmd_ixgbe/ixgbe_rxtx.c:2509: error: (near initialization for 'dev_info.driver_name')

lib/librte_pmd_ixgbe/ixgbe_rxtx.c: In function 'ixgbe_set_rsc':
lib/librte_pmd_ixgbe/ixgbe_rxtx.c:4072: error: missing initializer
lib/librte_pmd_ixgbe/ixgbe_rxtx.c:4072: error: (near initialization for 'dev_info.driver_name')

lib/librte_pmd_ixgbe/ixgbe_rxtx.c: In function 'ixgbe_recv_pkts_lro_single_alloc':
lib/librte_pmd_ixgbe/ixgbe_rxtx.c:1479: error: 'next_rsc_entry' may be used uninitialized in this function
lib/librte_pmd_ixgbe/ixgbe_rxtx.c:1480: error: 'next_rxe' may be used uninitialized in this function

The "missing initializer" warning is a GCC bug which seems fixed in 4.7.
The same warning is thrown by clang.
The "may be used uninitialized" warning is another GCC bug which seems fixed in 4.7.

Fixes: 8eecb3295aed ("ixgbe: add LRO support")

changes in v2:
- option -Wno-missing-field-initializers for old GCC instead of code workaround
changes in v3:
- option -Wno-missing-field-initializers for clang
- option -Wno-uninitialized for old GCC instead of code workaround (=NULL)
- remove redundants -Wno-uninitialized from ixgbe Makefile
