Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to LTS release 18.11.2

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 05/13/19. So please
shout if anyone has objections.

Also note that after the patch there's a diff of the upstream commit vs the
patch applied to the branch. This will indicate if there was any rebasing
needed to apply to the stable branch. If there were code changes for rebasing
(ie: not only metadata diffs), please double check that the rebase was
correctly done.

Queued patches are on a temporary branch at:
https://github.com/kevintraynor/dpdk-stable-queue

This queued commit can be viewed at:
https://github.com/kevintraynor/dpdk-stable-queue/commit/3c2019093661e477b4b01753b9d0ad0b545b13e2

Thanks.

Kevin Traynor

Subject: [PATCH] power: fix thread-safety environment modification

[ upstream commit 92433e347326c4d438c69093bbfa6212b8b59d60 ]

Due to lack of thread safety in exisiting solution
use spinlock mechanism for atomic
modification of power environment related data.

Fixes: 445c6528b5 ("power: common interface for guest and host")
