[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] devtools: skip removed DLB driver in ABI check

[Thomas Monjalon <thomas@monjalon.net>]

The eventdev driver DLB was removed in DPDK 21.05,
breaking the ABI check.
The exception was agreed so we just need to skip this check.

Note: complete removal of a driver cannot be ignored
in devtools/libabigail.abignore, so the script must be patched.

Fixes: 698fa829415d ("event/dlb: remove driver")

This should have been done as part of removing the driver.
The CI is currently broken, so it should be merged today.
