[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] examples/quota_watermark: fix wrong function type casing

[Jerin Jacob]

make pipeline_stage() and  send_stage() as lcore_function_t.
Found this issue with gcc 8.1.

examples/quota_watermark/qw/main.c: In function ‘main’:
examples/quota_watermark/qw/main.c:350:26: error: cast between
incompatible function types from ‘void (*)(void *)’ to
‘int (*)(void *)’ [-Werror=cast-function-type]
rte_eal_remote_launch((int (*)(void *))pipeline_stage,
                          ^
examples/quota_watermark/qw/main.c:357:24: error: cast between
incompatible function types from ‘void (*)(void *)’ to
‘int (*)(void *)’ [-Werror=cast-function-type]
rte_eal_remote_launch((int (*)(void *))send_stage, NULL, last_lcore_id);
