> The hard-coded thread priority for Windows threads in eal
> is REALTIME_PRIORITY_CLASS/THREAD_PRIORITY_TIME_CRITICAL.
> 
> This results in issues with DPDK threads causing OS thread starvation
> and eventually a bugcheck.
> 
> The fix reduce the thread priority to
> NORMAL_PRIORITY_CLASS/THREAD_PRIORITY_NORMAL.
