Hi Thomas, This is fix for critical issues exposed by Gaetan Rivet's commit(8ea656f8c300175ac84f3cbe1117f5ef11ffc4eb) to enable LSC.
This fix two issues. One is "VF testpmd can't set up successfully on Niantic nic.", another is " kernel VF sometimes can't link up successfully when test DPDK PF+kernel VF". The fix is verified and code review show it is low risk. It would be great if it can be released with DPDK 17.05.
