[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 2/2] mk: move PMD libraries to applications

> Some PMDs provide device specific APIs. Bond and xenvirt are existing
> samples for this.
> 
> And since these are PMD libraries, there are two options on how to link
> them for shared library build:
> 
> 1- They can be linked to all applications by default, using common
> rte.app.mk file.
> 
> 2- They can be explicitly linked to applications that use device
> specific API.
> 
> Currently option one is in use, this patch switches to the option two.
> 
> Moves library linking to the Makefile of application Makefile that uses
> device specific API.
> 
> This prevent these PMD libraries to be a dependency to applications
> that don't use these device specific APIs.
