Applied to dpdk-next-net/master, thanks.


Unrelated to this patch but nfp driver is still missing:
1- SPDX licensing tags
2- new offloading API.

Can you please plan for them for this release? Specially second one is important
because missing it may break the driver for this release.

Thanks,
ferruh
