Haven't reviewed, but did test applying these patches on FreeBSD to see what
happens there. Compilation works fine after applying all patches, and when I
run: 
	strings testpmd | grep PMD_INFO_STRING

I get the appropriate metadata output of device ids etc. that shows that the
data is getting written into the static binaries ok.

For a shared library, rather than static build, there was a problem building
with clang - probably unrelated to this set, I haven't checked yet - but a
gcc shared build worked fine. Checking testpmd showed zero PMD_INFO strings
as expected, and librte_pmd_ixgbe.so showed two, again as expected.

For the script in the tools directory, the first problem is that python is
not to be found in "/usr/bin/python" as on Linux. To make it run on FreeBSD,
this should be changed to "/usr/bin/env python", as in dpdk_config.py.
For the "pyelftools" dependency, on FreeBSD, this is available in ports as
"py-pyelftools" and it installed ok for me. The final issue was the hard-coded
path to the pci-ids in /usr/share/hwdata. Patch to fix these script issues is
below.

/Bruce
