Commit Message

Joyce Kong July 10, 2020, 2:38 a.m. UTC 
  The 'restrict' keyword is recognized in C99, while type qulifier
'__restrict' compiles ok in C with all language levels. This patch
is to replace the existing 'restrict' with '__rte_restrict' which
is a common wrapper supported by all compilers.
