I think it makes more sense if the type is EalParameters | None. With<br>
this change, the str type of eal_parameters moved to app_parameters.<br>

I think this change is more complicated than it seems at first glance.<br>
<br>
Before we either passed EalParameters (meant for DPDK apps) or a<br>
string (meant for other apps). There was no additional check for these<br>
assumptions.<br>
Now that we've split it, I see some cases which seem to be not covered.<br>
<br>
1. The app is a DPDK app and we pass EalParameters. The two hyphens<br>
are not added.<br>
2. The app is not a DPDK app and we pass EalParameters. Similarly to<br>
current behavior (without the patch), we kinda assume that the caller<br>
won't do this, but now that we're modifying the behavior, let's add a<br>
check that won't allow EalParameters with non-DPDK apps.<br>
