So what is the purpose of the code under RTE_SCHED_CMAN #ifdef?
Is it a dead code? Should it be enabled with a hidden option?

> -#undef RTE_SCHED_COLLECT_STATS

RTE_SCHED_COLLECT_STATS should be removed from config
in the same patch removing the #ifdef in the code.

> -#undef RTE_SCHED_SUBPORT_TC_OV

RTE_SCHED_SUBPORT_TC_OV should be removed from config
in the same patch removing the #ifdef in the code.

> -#undef RTE_SCHED_VECTOR

RTE_SCHED_VECTOR should be removed while removing code in patch 4.
Maybe start the series with patch 4.
A good cleanup series starts with removing useless code.
While removing, you should justify in the commit log why it is useless.

The KNI addition is unrelated.

No we should not modify rte_config.h
It should be modified via CFLAGS.

Do you expect users to modify it?
Given the #ifndef, it seems yes.
So you should document it with CFLAGS.
