IRQF_NO_THREAD seems has been introduced in 2.6.39, so using this flag
causing build error for kernel versions < 2.6.39.
btw, the flag is already in use, so issue is not related to this patch.
In DPDK documentation supported Linux kernel version is >= 2.6.34 [1].
We should either increase supported version to 2.6.39, or update igb_uio
code.
I am for increasing minimum supported kernel version to 2.6.39, any
objection / comment?
2.6.39 released on May 2011
2.6.34 released on May 2010
