If applying those reverts, some issues still exist on our side. I sent one patch to patchwork: https://patchwork.dpdk.org/project/dpdk/patch/20230116105318.19412-1-simei...@intel.com/. You can try this patch to see whether it can solve the issue on your side. At the same time, on our side, we need to do regression test further to check if this patch will affect other cases, the regression takes some time.
