[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] examples/l3fwd: remove useless reloads in FIB main loop

[Conor Walsh <conor.walsh@intel.com>]

This patch aligns the l3fwd FIB code with the changes made to LPM in
commit 74fb854a3de6 ("examples/l3fwd: remove useless reloads in LPM
main loop").
This change ensures the compiler knows that the lcore config variables
are constant values and the compiler will then optimize the code
accordingly.
