[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 1/3] config: remove explicit undefinition of unset values

Rather than explicitly clearing any setting of undefined values in our
rte_config.h file, it's better to instead just add a comment that the value
is not set. Using a comment allows the user to set the value using CFLAGS
or similar mechanism without the config file clearing the value again.

The text used "<VALUE> is not set" is modelled after the kernel approach of
doing the same thing.

Although DPDK coding convention forbids use of "//" for comments, using
regular C comment style makes the config settings less clear, as they can
be confused with regular comments in the file. Using "//" makes them stand
out better, so I prefer it. However, if others feel strongly, they can be
changed to standard.
