Linux kernel 'get_maintainer.pl' script supports running out of Linux
tree since commit
31bb82c9caa9 ("get_maintainer: allow usage outside of kernel tree")
As commit is a few years old now, integrating it to DPDK and removing
ugly workaround for it.

- As "readlink -e" and "readlink -m" do not exist on freebsd,
use "readlink -f", it should not have any impact in these cases.
- "sed -ri" is invalid on freebsd and should be replaced by
"sed -ri=''"
- Use gmake instead of make.
This fixes the following command:
SYSDIR=/usr/src/sys ./devtools/test-build.sh \
-j4 x86_64-native-freebsd-gcc

Handle properly a case where the path (DPDK_PATCH_PATH
or DPDK_MAINTAINER_PATH) is set to point to a directory.

get-maintainer script requires the creation of
some folders, including "kernel". Since now this folder
exists in DPDK folder, it is not required to create it.

When the DPDK_GETMAINTAINER_PATH variable was not set, the error
message from get-maintainer.sh was quite cheap:
$ devtools/get-maintainer.sh --help
usage: get-maintainer.sh <patch>
Cannot execute DPDK_GETMAINTAINER_PATH
Add a more detailed explanation about this variable in the help.

This is a wrapper to Linux kernel get_maintainer.pl file and only
supports parsing MAINTAINERS file (no git fallback etc..)
Requires DPDK_GETMAINTAINER_PATH devel config option set, please check
devtools/load-devel-config.
DPDK_GETMAINTAINER_PATH should be full path to the get_maintainer.pl
script, like:
DPDK_GETMAINTAINER_PATH=~/linux/scripts/get_maintainer.pl
Can be used individually:
./devtools/get-maintainer.sh <my.patch>
Or via git send-email, to add maintainers automatically:
git send-email --to-cmd ./devtools/get-maintainer.sh \
--cc dev@dpdk.org HEAD -4
Currently there is an ugly workaround to be able to use Linux script out
of the kernel tree, later better method can replace it.
