Subject: devtools: avoid explicit experimental build flag
X-Git-Url: http://git.droids-corp.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b071f1fa8825f51a9e81921f05f31c36e57c43cf;p=dpdk.git

devtools: avoid explicit experimental build flag

-DALLOW_EXPERIMENTAL_API is always set for in-tree compilation since
https://git.dpdk.org/dpdk/commit/?id=acec04c4b2f5

Warn people not to copy/paste this flag that was needed before.
