No need to export these funtions, they're only used by librte_eal.

But theres lots of locations in dpdk that could be using these functions.  I
count 57 calls sites in dpdk for sysconf(SC_PAGESIZE), spread throughout the
library collection, as well as some others for sysconf(_SC_IOV_MAX) and
sysconf(_SC_NPROCESSORS_CONF).  If the goal is to abstract away the use of
sysconf in dpdk, you probably at least want to export rte_mem_page_size.

the same is likely true for mmap/munmap
