Hi,

As suggested by Bruce, I'm looking to apply this patchset before the ARM one.
Please check the comments below.

Is it possible to split the changes in next_hop and config structure?

The spacing is wrong here. Please check also the past tense.
There is a template in the release notes.

> +BIND_DEFAULT_SYMBOL(rte_lpm_add, _v23, 2.3);
> +MAP_STATIC_SYMBOL(

The version will be 16.04 instead of 2.3.
