[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] vhost: Fix linkage of vhost PMD

Currently, vhost PMD doesn't have linkage for librte_vhost, even though
it depends on librte_vhost APIs. This causes a linkage error if below
conditions are fulfilled.

 - DPDK libraries are compiled as shared libraries.
 - DPDK application doesn't link librte_vhost.
 - Above application tries to link vhost PMD using '-d' DPDK option.

The patch adds linkage for librte_vhost to vhost PMD not to cause an
above error.
