I send v1 to fix the chk_includes compile error by adding rte_dmadev_trace_fp.h in indirect_headers
(previous is headers). According the indirect_headers usage in [1], I think it's feasible.
BTW: If not solved by above, I think we need divide rte_dmadev.h into two part, first includes common
definition, and second includes data-path definition. and then rte_dmadev_trace_fp.h include the
common definition.
