> Remove notice announcing an already-implemented change.
> 
> In 19.05, rte_power_set_env was changed to return -1 in cases where
> the envorinment was already set up, and for the same release, a
> deprecation notice was added for the following commit:
> 'commit 5a5f3178d4a8 ("power: return error when environment already set")'
> This patch removes that notice.
> 
> The API change was tested by calling rte_power_set_env twice. The first
> call succeeded, and the second call failed, as expected.

The Fixes: line must reference the commit which did the API change
without removing the notice.

Cc: stable at dpdk.org must be below the Fixes line.
