A missing define in the previous patch causes additional compilation
issues.

Fixes: 3025206f5060 ("mlx: fix compilation with recent Glibc")

Signed-off-by: Adrien Mazarguil <redacted>

"older Glibc" or "recent Glibc" can be very hard to trace from git
history later.

I wasn't sure about the exact version, it appears to be 2.19 and/or 2.20,
where _BSD_SOURCE was modified and subsequently removed.

I suggest squashing this patch into the original broken commit ("mlx: fix
compilation with recent Glibc") if possible, I did not submit a v2 as it is
already applied on dpdk-next-net.

Does it make sense to add glibc version info for the failing ones or
fixed one?

Depends if we can modify the first commit. If we do, let's squash them
together before adding version information, otherwise let's modify the
second one only.

I can submit a v2 that overrides both commits or only the second one, tell
me what you think is best.

While I don't like squashing or modifying already-applied commits on the next
tree, since this is for a compilation issue, I may be able to make an exception.

To evaluate it, please send on the proposed updated commit message for the
combined commits. I assume the code to be squashed is as in this V1 patch.
