[dpdk-dev] Clang Scan build results

[Wiles, Roger Keith]

Not sure why cite marks are missing again :-( I hope they come back some day. I still must not have Mac Mail configure correctly, but I only really see a couple of options. If someone has a solution let me know.

Yes, I noticed the drivers had a few problems and were one of the files I had to force scan-build work.
