Including rte_mbuf.h in C++ triggers the following warning as C++ does not
allow implicit casting of a void *.

In file included from test.cpp:1:0:
x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc/include/rte_mbuf.h: In function
‘rte_mbuf_ext_shared_info* rte_pktmbuf_ext_shinfo_init_helper(void*, uint16_t*,
rte_mbuf_extbuf_free_callback_t, void*)’:
x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc/include/rte_mbuf.h:1349:9: error: invalid conversion
from ‘void*’ to ‘rte_mbuf_ext_shared_info*’ [-fpermissive]
  shinfo = RTE_PTR_ALIGN_FLOOR(RTE_PTR_SUB(buf_end,
         ^
