[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] eal: fix incorrect API doc for power intrinsics

Currently, the intrinsics documentation refers to `rte_cpu_get_features`
as a check for whether these intrinsics are supported at runtime. This
is incorrect, because actually the user should use the
`rte_cpu_get_intrinsics_support` API to do said check. Fix the typo.
