Its been found that one of the armv7 toolchain treats
-Wno-address-of-packed-member as unrecognized command line option,
Hence armv7 build fails on dpdk.org master now. Not sure it is specific to
armv7 or compiler?
Armv7 is not maintained and I don’t think, it has any use case for DPDK.
If everyone agrees IMO it is better remove the arm 32bit support.
