It's the first patch in the patch set that makes the function static.

The 0015.patch and 0016.patch are two extra fix patches made by myself. The 0015 is for the
"static fm10k_msg_update_pvid_pf " issue, the 0016 adds back a few macro definitions
which are removed in shared code but are needed in dpdk/fm10k, I add these necessary
macros into fm10k/base/fm10k_osdep.h which is controlled by dpdk driver.

I put the two extra (15/16, 16/16) fix patches last, (15/16) is a change for fm10k_ethdev.c,
so I prefix the subject with "fm10k: ", (16/16) is a change for base/fm10k_osdep.h, so I prefix
the subject with "fm10k/base: ".

Best Regards,
Wang, Xiao
