I'm not opposed to any of these changes, but I'm really starting to wonder how
well used/maintained clang is as a toolchain target.  I assert that because,
with my admittedly broken dependency rule, a native clang build for me errors
out in any number of places:

/home/nhorman/git/dpdk/lib/librte_eal/linuxapp/eal/eal_pci.c:392:37: error:
equality comparison with extraneous parentheses [-Werror,-Wparentheses-equality]
 if (((&pci_device_list)->tqh_first == ((void*)0))) {
      ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~~
/home/nhorman/git/dpdk/lib/librte_eal/linuxapp/eal/eal_pci.c:392:37: note:
remove extraneous parentheses around the comparison to silence this warning
 if (((&pci_device_list)->tqh_first == ((void*)0))) {
     ~                              ^            ~
/home/nhorman/git/dpdk/lib/librte_eal/linuxapp/eal/eal_pci.c:392:37: note: use
'=' to turn this equality comparison into an assignment
 if (((&pci_device_list)->tqh_first == ((void*)0))) {

along with several others
...

The above are (in part) asserted based on the definition of the TAILQ_EMPTY macro which is
from glibc, and has been unchanged for a number of years.  This error occurs on
clang 3.7.0 for me.  Not saying we can't fix these warnings your getting, but if
clang has been tripping over the above for I don't know how long, I have to
question how important clang is.
