a bug was fixed where rte_arch_bswap16 was being hidden except when
RTE_FORCE_INTRINSICS was defined.

i suspect -t bpf should likely define RTE_FORCE_INTRINSICS since it
seems generally unreasonable to have x86 inline asm in a bpf translation
unit.

if there are problems with RTE_FORCE_INTRINSICS they'll have to be
addressed as separate bugs.
