This fixes an issue with the patch you backported for 18.11. Is the
issue also present in the backported version?
If so, this patch is not in upstream dpdk or gone through validation. So
the choices are,
1. revert your patches from 18.11
2. go ahead on stable without this patch
3. delay until this patch is in master (but not until validated) and
then backport to stable
Itsuro/Maxime, what do you think?
thanks,
Kevin.
