This patch I'm not so sure about. For 64-bit, the term "default" is pretty much correct, as it should work for any 64-bit IA cpu AFAIK, since all 64-bit cpus should have the necessary SSE instructions to run DPDK. For 32-bit it's perhaps not so clear cut, but I think the baseline being "default" rather than a specific uarch is good to keep.
