Hi Stephen,

You are right, but without this we cannot rule out the chance that the
user downloaded DPDK, reverted to any version earlier than 20.11 (where make
and meson co-existed) and use make to compile - also they happened to have
intel-ipsec-mb version 1.0 or newer installed before compiling DPDK.

With the description, at least they would know switching to meson build will fix
the problem.

Regards,
Fan
