[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] l3fwd-power: make interrupt wakeup log thread safe

Currently, the interrupt status notification prevents log spam by
remembering whether previous interrupt wakeup was due to traffic or due
to timeout expiring. However, it is a single variable that can
potentially be accessed from multiple threads, so it is not thread-safe.
Fix it by having per-lcore interrupt status.
