Something occurs to me with this patch.  rte_cpu_get_flag_enabled is a public
API call.  Interally, and externally we might use this call for checking cpu
support (rte_acl_init is an example).  Because the API call accepts an
rte_cpu_flag_t type as an input, all the ennumerated values need to be defined
all the time, or we will get build breakage (I.e. with this patch above, I exect
you never compiled the ACL library, as RTE_CPUFLAG_SSE4_1 shouldn't be defined,
and you would get build breakage).  What we probably need to do is merge the
cpufalgs to a single enumeration that is available for all arches.
