件名: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH] ppc64: fix compilation of when AltiVec is
enabled

The definition of almost any newer standard like --stc=c11 will drop
__APPLCE_ALTIVEC__ which otherwise would be defined.
If that is the case then altivec.h will redefine bool to a type
conflicting with those defined by stdbool.h.

This breaks compilation of 18.08 on ppc64 like:
 mlx5_nl_flow.c:407:17: error: incompatible types when assigning to
type
 ‘__vector __bool int’ {aka ‘__vector(4) __bool int’} from type
‘int’
 in_port_id_set = false;

Other alternatives were pursued on [1] but they always ended up being
more
complex than what would be appropriate for the issue we face.
