  Since DPDK has only two timer sources,
Avoid &eal_timer_source memory read and followed
by the switch case statement when
RTE_LIBEAL_USE_HPET is not defined.

v2:
- Rearrage the ifdef to avoiding the #else part by
"unifdef" the first occurence of rte_get_tsc_cycles(Thomas)

It is not a fix but it is simple and safe enough to be in 17.05-rc4.

Applied, thanks
