Right, the issue was in observed from commit 56ea803e878e ("build: remove Windows export symbol list") and this patch fixes it, apologies for not stating it in the commit log.

Since rte_common_mlx5_exports.def was merged to version.map several functions which needed export only for Windows were brought in, e.g. mlx5_os_umem_reg, in Linux it is implemented in the .h file but has a .c implementation on Windows so it is needed to be in version.map.

Windows doesn't run symbol check in debug so up until the file merge it wasn't caught.
