I wasn't sure about the exact version, it appears to be 2.19 and/or 2.20,
where _BSD_SOURCE was modified and subsequently removed.

I suggest squashing this patch into the original broken commit ("mlx: fix
compilation with recent Glibc") if possible, I did not submit a v2 as it is
already applied on dpdk-next-net.

Depends if we can modify the first commit. If we do, let's squash them
together before adding version information, otherwise let's modify the
second one only.

I can submit a v2 that overrides both commits or only the second one, tell
me what you think is best.
