Thinking again about the cross file.
Why not using the meson option "cpu_instruction_set"
to define RTE_MACHINE as "epyc" and tune other compilation options
without using artificial cross build?
Reminder, the default in config/meson.build is:
if cpu_instruction_set == 'generic'
if host_machine.cpu_family().startswith('x86')
cpu_instruction_set = 'corei7'
