Mon Dec 21 13:18:25 CET 2015


This is based on patch from Alex Williamson:
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=033291eccbdb
plus
http://dpdk.org/dev/patchwork/patch/9598/

This patch is intended to test above patches on DPDK rather than
official patch to DPDK.

Test result is DPDK successfully run on no-iommu environment.
