The DPDK checkpatch uses the underlying kernel tool which
does some checks that are only relevant in kernel code.
The warning about msleep() time only makes sense in the
kernel.
Suppress feedback like:
WARNING:MSLEEP: msleep < 20ms can sleep for up to 20ms; see function description of msleep().
+ msleep(10);
