This will likely break the FIB library for systems which don't have AVX-512
support, since you are enabling AVX-512 for the whole library, meaning that
the compiler can put AVX-512 instructions anywhere it wants in the library.
You need to separate out the AVX-512 code into a separate file, and compile
that file - and only that file - for AVX-512. An example of how this should
be done, can be seen in the AVX support in the i40e net driver.
