"-Werror-all" is forced in DEVEL_BUILD, in this cause I was assuming to force developer to fix the warning to increase the code quality, independent from compiler. As of now, all DPDK compiles with icc without warning. But we are allowing the icc warnings just because the warnings with the change in the mlx driver. And when we let is once, it is for sure warnings will increase by time. If we support ICC, I am for keeping this flag and support it properly.
