You can hide ifdef inside the function, see below.

This function can be static, plus pls try to follow dpdk codying style:

static int
ixgbe_wait_for_link_up(struct ixgbe_hw *hw)
{
   .... 

You can put #ifdef inside the function:
#ifdef RTE_EXEC_ENV_FREEBSD
<do something meaningfull here>
#else
RTE_SET_USED(hw);
#endif

Or even:
#ifdef RTE_EXEC_ENV_FREEBSD
const uint32_t nb_iter = 25;
#else
const uint32_t nb_iter = 0;
#endif

...
for (i = 0; i < nb_iter; i++) { 
   ...

> +{

> +	uint32_t speed = 0;

Empty line here would help readability.

Pls see above, that function can be static.
