Someone originally introduced these i40e and ixgbe related fdir functions (print_fdir_mask, print_fdir_flex_payload, print_fdir_flex_mask, print_fdir_flow_type, get_fdir_info, fdir_get_infos) into testpmd with adding the #if defined(RTE_NET_I40E) || defined(RTE_NET_IXGBE) for 4 out of 6 functions and left 2 of them outside the #ifdef which caused compilation "unused function" warning. What I did here is just move the starting point of #ifdef to also include those 2 missed functions (print_fdir_mask and print_fdir_flex_payload). IMO the original author would be in better place to reducing the unneccary #ifdef in a proper way.

Thanks Dmitry. Can you please help Ack on V14 which I sent out yesterday? Otherwise, I will send out V15 to carry over this ack from this V13.
