Working with the PF requires access to the NFP for basic configuration.
NSP is the NFP Service Processor helping with hardware and firmware
configuration. NSPU is the NSP user space interface for working with the
NSP.
Configuration through NSPU allows to create PCI BAR windows for accessing
different NFP hardware units, including the BAR window for the NSPU
interface access itself. NFP expansion bar registers are used for creating
those PCI BAR windows. NSPU uses a specific expansion bar which is
reprogrammed for accessing/doing different things.
Other expansion bars will be configured later for configuring the PF vNIC
bars, a subset of PF PCI BARs.

Before this patch, the management of dependencies between directories
had several issues:
- the generation of .depdirs, done at configuration is slow: it can take
more than one minute on some slow targets (usually ~10s on a standard
PC without -j).
- for instance, it is possible to express a dependency like:
- app/foo depends on lib/librte_foo
- and lib/librte_foo depends on app/bar
But this won't work because the directories are traversed with a
depth-first algorithm, so we have to choose between doing 'app' before
or after 'lib'.
- the script depdirs-rule.sh is too complex.
- we cannot use "make -d" for debug, because the output of make is used for
the generation of .depdirs.
This patch moves the DEPDIRS-* variables in the upper Makefile, making
the dependencies much easier to calculate. A DEPDIRS variable is still
used to process library dependencies in LDLIBS.
After this commit, "make config" is almost immediate.

librte_malloc was long since merged into librte_eal, mop up the
leftover references to it from driver Makefiles.

Applied with qede Makefile update too.

Commit e86a699cf6b1 missed two further libm dependencies: ceil() used
by librte_meter is typically inlined so the missing dependency does not
actually cause failures, and librte_pmd_nfp is not built by default
so its easy to miss.
This causes duplicates in LDLIBS in many configurations so its vital
they are removed before passing to linker.
Fixes: e86a699cf6b1 ("mk: fix shared library dependencies on libm and librt")
