[PATCH] net/mlx5: fix compilation warning in GCC-9.1

[PATCH] net/mlx5: fix compilation warning in GCC-9.1

[Gregory Etelson]

GCC has introduced a bugfix in 9.1 that changed GCC ABI in ARM setups:
https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-9/changes.html
```
On Arm targets (arm*-*-*), a bug in the implementation of the
procedure call standard (AAPCS) in the GCC 6, 7 and 8 releases
has been fixed: a structure containing a bit-field based on a 64-bit
integral type and where no other element in a structure required
64-bit alignment could be passed incorrectly to functions.
This is an ABI change. If the option -Wpsabi is enabled
(on by default) the compiler will emit a diagnostic note for code
that might be affected.
```

The patch fixes PMD compilation in the INTEGRITY flow item.
