It's about that we haven't tried the PMD with these NIC's yet, so announcing that it has support for them
without knowing that we don't really have any issues (even 0 level issue) I don't think its OK to add such documentation.

I think once we'll have the proper testing done for them, we can add them to all necessary documentations
