In musl libc, cpu_set_t is defined only if _GNU_SOURCE is defined.
If we avoid mandating _GNU_SOURCE,
we must #ifdef functions relying on rte_cpuset_t in the headers:
- rte_lcore_cpuset
- rte_thread_set_affinity
- rte_thread_get_affinity
- rte_telemetry_init (internal)
Or a different trick in linux/include/rte_os.h could be:
typedef void rte_cpuset_t;
so it allows including files, but not using above functions of course.
