Also let me know which version of DPDK get cloned while downloading via get clone?

Hi @mmanoj

I confirmed the compilation error in my local environment too...
I think using relative include path in Makefile may lead to a missing "libwebsockets.h".
I fixed Makefile, so please check again.

Version of DPDK is 16.04.
