When checking the vm_power_manager portion of this guide, I came across 
a dependency on a patch set that Bruce submitted, which makes some power 
management library headers public. This patch set needs to be applied so 
vm_power_mgr and guest_cli can be build with these instruction.

http://patches.dpdk.org/project/dpdk/list/?series=11745

Once that patch set is applied, new guide instructions works well.

Also, one small nit, if you're pusing another version of the patch set 
(don't worry about it of you're not), maybe something to consider for 
the patch description: While make has been deprecated for DPDK, it's 
still applicable for some example apps, this patch set adjusts the 
guides to take that into consideration.

Thanks,
Dave.
