Set looks pretty good. Just a couple of minor issues, apart from the one
checkpatch issue I flagged:

* seems to be some inconsistency between using the "rte_eal_init_alert"
  function and RTE_LOG. If there is some reason why some cases use
  the function and others don't I think that might need to be called out
  somewhere.
* check-git-log flags a number of minor errors with commit titles and
  messages - most common is commit titles starting with a capital
  letter.

Otherwise:
