 Deprecation Notices
 -------------------
+* Significant ABI changes are planned for struct rte_mbuf, and several PKT_RX_ 
flags will be removed, to support unified packet type from release 2.2. The 
upcoming release 2.1 will not have those changes. There is no backward 
compatibility planned from release 2.2. All binaries will need to be rebuilt 
from release 2.2.
