Also, our application is started by an init script and there is some shell
magic to attempt to deduce number of cpus (not hard) and number of memory
channels (kind of messy). I do think the DPDK should work without any arguments
and do this itself. The CPU part is easy by looking at /sys, but the memory
channel information has to come from DMI which is a real ugly mess.
