[dpdk-dev] [PACTH v2 2/2] mlx4: fix shared library dependency

librte_pmd_mlx4.so needs to be linked with libiverbs otherwise, the PMD is not
able to open Mellanox devices and the following message is printed by testpmd
at startup "librte_pmd_mlx4: cannot access device, is mlx4_ib loaded?".
Applications dependency on libverbs are moved to be only valid in static mode,
in shared mode, applications do not depend on it anymore,
librte_pmd_mlx4.so keeps this dependency and thus is linked with libverbs.
