[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 09/12] Remove iopl operation for IBM Power architecture

[Chao Zhu]

iopl() call is mostly for the i386 architecture. In Power architecture.
It doesn't exist. This patch modified rte_eal_iopl_init() and make it
return -1 on Power. This means rte_config.flags will not contain
EAL_FLG_HIGH_IOPL flag on IBM Power architecture.
