Thanks for the quick patch.

rte_fib6.h, rte_lpm6.h and rte_table_lpm_ipv6.h don't need to include
rte_common.h anymore.
It had been added when deprecating those macros/functions.

I think you missed RTE_IP_ICMP_ECHO_REPLY and
RTE_IP_ICMP_ECHO_REQUEST, from 87bde5ae6873 ("net: add more ICMP types
and codes").

Yes good thing to add a generic entry, we have other removals that
will end up here.
I would sort those by libraries, as I intend to reuse this entry for
PCI cleanup.

So something like:
