What kind of test are you looking for?  Indeed, vhost and tunneling
are fairly new, yes, but ethernet ports are being tested for the
whole 2.3 cycle.

My concern is that a new DPDK related feature would push that again.
Perhaps come up with a table stating features X status?

DPDK ports            Stable
DPDK vhost-cuse       Experimental/Obsolete
DPDK vhost-user       Experimental
DPDK ivshmem          ...
DPDK PMD management   ...
