Subject: [PATCH] app/testpmd: fix static build link ordering

[ upstream commit d74cbeca7596b3237fe5b823fb8a4bcfe8a7d979 ]

By introducing explicit -lrte_pmd_ixgbe link request in
testpmd Makefile,"-Wl,-lrte_pmd_ixgbe" provided twice, and linker
removes the duplication by keeping only first occurrence.
This moves "-Wl,-lrte_pmd_ixgbe" out of "-Wl,--whole-archive" flag
and makes symbol generation totally different than previous version
in case of static build.
This patch fixes the static build linking order by introducing
-lrte_pmd_ixgbe under the shared library config
(CONFIG_RTE_BUILD_SHARED_LIB).

Fixes: 425781ff5afe ("app/testpmd: add ixgbe VF management")
