Subject: devtools: check %l format specifier
X-Git-Url: http://git.droids-corp.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d991d879f985c55cccd42aa8a383b7bbb72d0344;p=dpdk.git

devtools: check %l format specifier

%lx or %llx tend to be wrong for 32-bit platform
if used for fixed size variable like uint64_t.
A checkpatch warning will avoid this common mistake.
