The right fix would be to move that arch-specific code into an EAL abstraction.

I agree. I thought the same. But I am not able to understand why 'cpuid'
instruction used here without any input/output parameters. What is the
role of 'cpuid' instruction in this specific function and what to
abstract in eal ?

It is explained here:
	http://dpdk.org/ml/archives/dev/2014-January/001182.html

I think it can be replaced by rte_rdtsc_precise() which was implemented
after the above discussion. It uses rte_mb instead of cpuid.

As explained in the following thread, memory fence can be used instead of cpuid:
	http://stackoverflow.com/a/12634857
As showed in the following threads, rdtscp can also be used:
	http://stackoverflow.com/a/27697754
	http://dpdk.org/ml/archives/dev/2015-April/016770.html

It reminds me that we should deprecate rte_rdtsc() and rte_get_tsc_cycles() in
favor of a more generic name, e.g. rte_get_clock_cycles().
