hi Thomas,

http://mails.dpdk.org/archives/test-report/2021-August/211681.html

This time it's failing in building release notes guide for 19.08 where
this driver was introduced first. Wouldn't release notes be built for
current ?
It would be odd to remove something from old release notes.

regards,
Radha Mohan
