It does not pass for me:

In file included from dmafwd.c:14:
build-x86-generic/install/usr/local/include/rte_dmadev.h:799:10:
fatal error: rte_dmadev_trace_fp.h: No such file or directory
  799 | #include "rte_dmadev_trace_fp.h"

Let me repeat again my recommendations:
First you must export rte_dmadev_trace_fp.h as it is included by rte_dmadev.h.
	YOU NEED TO ADD IT in meson.build FILE
Note: you could have caught this if testing the example app for DMA.
Second, you must avoid structs and enum in this header file,
otherwise it cannot be included alone.
Look at what is done in other *_trace_fp.h files.

Is it an error related to your patch?
If not, please raise it in bugzilla to get it fixed.
