Thanks for the fix, sorry for VFIO.
I tried to let go of VFIO_PRESENT in the PCI patchset, unfortunately I did
not do a good-enough job.
Instead of reinstating the dependency on the private eal_vfio.h header,
I'd suggest replacing all VFIO_PRESENT references within the PCI bus by
RTE_EAL_VFIO, and make the pci_vfio.c compilation depend on it within
the linux Makefile. Something like:
---8<---
grep -rl VFIO_PRESENT drivers/bus/pci/linux/ |while read -r file
do sed -i 's;VFIO_PRESENT;RTE_EAL_VFIO;' $file
done

Do you think it could work? If so, I think it would be preferable
to re-including eal_vfio.h. Private EAL headers are bound to be removed
from other subsystems at some point. I tried to start with VFIO, others
should follow.
