Hi Vladimir,

On my HiFive Unmatched RISC-V board there is a marginal difference (~ -1.56%):
  Our version: 210.5 cycles (fails = 12.5%)
  rte_lpm_lookup version: 213.8 cycles (fails = 12.5%)
Given that x86 is faster with rte_lpm_lookup, I'll change to this
implementation in the next version.

That said I wonder why do we have different const requirements for
rte_lpm_lookup() and rte_lpm_lookupx4():
  static inline int rte_lpm_lookup(struct rte_lpm *lpm, uint32_t ip,
uint32_t *next_hop)
  static inline void rte_lpm_lookupx4(const struct rte_lpm *lpm, xmm_t
ip, uint32_t hop[4], uint32_t defv);
I think both should be const.
