+ Thomas. I've tried the checkpatch.pl from CentOS 7.4 & 7.5 and also from the latest kernel, get no warning in my self-check with dpdk/devtools/checkpatches.sh. I don't know what checkpatch.pl the CI uses, it depends on the DPDK_CHECKPATCH_PATH environment variable setting. In the v5 patch, I add the __rte_experimental flag for the new API even in the vdpa.c file, but CI still reports this warning.
