[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 1/1] compat: fixed versioning macros

[Maciej Gajdzica <maciejx.t.gajdzica@intel.com>]

Previous version of versioning macros didn't work properly. When
building dpdk as static library, external application couldn't use
versioned function. It happened, because versioning macros for static
library were empty. Now the same version of versioning macros is used
for both static and dynamic libraries.
