NAK
Not carrying custom backport code in the upstream tree.

This driver is abusing the idea behind base/ code.
In DPDK base directory is intended for code shared between multiple platforms.
I.e some vendors support DPDK, BSD, VmWare, and even Linux with common code.

The base directory is not intended as a backport hook.
