[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] Tools: Fix issue with virtio interface names

[Mussar, Gary]

I am new at submitting patches to dpdk.org. This patch has been acked and patchwork claims success on build it: http://www.dpdk.org/dev/patchwork/patch/15595/

Other users state it has corrected their problems. Am I supposed to be doing something else with it before it gets applied to master?
