[RFC] resolve conflict between net/ethernet.h and rte_ethdev.h

[Stephen Hemminger <stephen-OTpzqLSitTUnbdJkjeBofR2eb7JE58TQ@public.gmane.org>]

This is a patch to address the conflict between <net/ethernet.h>
and the definitions in <rte_ethdev.h>. It has two side effects
worth discussion:
  1. It forces inclusion of net/ethernet.h
  2. It has definition to deal with the differing structure elements
     in the two versions of struct ether_addr.

By doing this ether_ntoa and related functions can be used without
messing with prototypes.

Alternative is more complex #ifdef magic like linux/libc-compat.h
