The 19.11 branch is in stable long-term-support mode, and adding
new drivers is not supported.

The DPDK current release is 21.02 and 21.05 is in final release process.
You should submit your driver based on the current main branch which
is 21.05 and then it will likely be picked up for 21.08 release.
