Minimal supported DPDK version is 4.4 now. So this is not a problem.

Note: 4.4 kernel reached end of support window in Febrary 2022.
It is supported by the SLTS project but it would be unwise
to use later DPDK on a kernel that is stuck being supported until 2036.

Apparently my patch to update it to current LTS 4.9 is sitting
stuck in patchwork.
