I can't speak for everyone else, but normally when i'm working on a DPDK
codebase, there's a whole bunch of stuff that isn't built by default,
and i normally never bother. So, while working from git repo is
guaranteed to generate a correct ABI dump, it is *not* guaranteed to
cover everything, unless the developer takes steps to do otherwise.
As far as i understand, the plan is to make ABI checks part of the
automation - so the effort of *having* these reference ABI dumps is
already spent anyway, might as well make them accessible to whoever
develops DPDK too. And if CDN/connectivity fails - well, so be it,
either fall back to manual process, or let the automation handle it.
