 Hi All!

I have an error when I compile latest DPDK ovs code. DPDK version is 1.7.

Error is:

You are building an openvswitch application using an old DPDK API.
This function is not public anymore in DPDK 1.7.0.

Please fix and report it on the appropriate mailing list.
You can use some macros in version.h to keep compatibility with
older versions.

Hi Sothy

As 'PMD_REGISTER_DRIVER' was introduced recently to replace those direct invoking, those functions do not need to be called and have been removed. Please search ' PMD_REGISTER_DRIVER ' to see more details in code.
