While most of the DPDK headers are rte-prefixed, not all are, and in 
particular it really has no business of putting directories such as 
"common" and "general" directly into /usr/include.

Its better to put them into a dpdk-specific directory, say, 
$(DESTDIR)/usr/include/dpdk also requested here:
