What toolchain are you using? With your change I still get errors about
the expression not being constant:

In file included from ../lib/eal/arm/include/rte_pause.h:13,
                 from ../lib/eal/include/generic/rte_spinlock.h:25,
                 from ../lib/eal/arm/include/rte_spinlock.h:17,
                 from ../lib/telemetry/telemetry.c:20:
../lib/eal/arm/include/rte_pause_64.h: In function ‘rte_wait_until_equal_16’:
../lib/eal/arm/include/rte_pause_64.h:156:23: error: expression in static assertion is not constant

    |                         ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I'm cross-compiling with GCC v12.2 using the
config/arm/arm64_armv8_linux_gcc cross-file, and enabling
RTE_ARM_USE_WFE by uncommenting it in config/arm/meson.build and setting
its value to true.
