Hi Leyi,

Will this build if config option 'CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_IAVF_INC_VECTOR' is disabled?
And indeed why not eliminate 'CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_IAVF_INC_VECTOR' at all? Please
check ice for the sample.

And another thing is to remove the __rte_weak, for the consistency, since it has
been removed from the i40e.
