[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 2/2] mk: reduce scope of whole-archive to pmd libraries

[Ferruh Yigit <ferruh.yigit@intel.com>]

--whole-archive argument only required for pmd libraries, and currently
it covers more libraries. Reducing scope of the argument to pmd
libraries slightly reduce final application size.
