[dpdk-stable] [PATCH v2 3/5] net/octeontx: fix build with sve enabled

Building with gcc 10.2 with SVE extension enabled got error:

{standard input}: Assembler messages:
{standard input}:91: Error: selected processor does not support `addvl x4,x8,#-1'
{standard input}:95: Error: selected processor does not support `ptrue p1.d,all'
{standard input}:135: Error: selected processor does not support `whilelo p2.d,xzr,x5'
{standard input}:137: Error: selected processor does not support `decb x1'

This is because inline assembly code explicitly resets cpu model to
not have SVE support. Thus SVE instructions generated by compiler
auto vectorization got rejected by assembler.

Fixed the issue by replacing inline assembly with equivalent atomic
built-ins. Compiler will generate LSE instructions for cpu that has
the extension.
