error: 'rte_xmm_t' undeclared here (arm compilation)

Can it be fixed by including rte_vect.h?

Ideally I would prefer we stop using XMM types in a generic code.
XMM are x86-only registers. It has been translated for other arches
but we should use a more generic name.

What was the intention here? SSE-optimized code or 128-bit size?
Please check lib/librte_eal/common/include/generic/rte_vect.h
for a generic type.
