Thank you for improving C++ compatibility.
I'm not sure what is best to fix it.
You are adding extern "C" in a file which is not directly included
by the user app. The same was done for rte_rwlock.h.
The other way is to make sure this include is in an extern "C" block
in lib/eal/*/include/rte_vect.h (instead of being before the block).
I would like we use the same approach for all files.
Opinions?
