I am wondering, what would be the right balance, Following is DPDK
startup output from octeontx2[1]
It creates a lot of clutter in the "default" boot up. Why not enable
below prints using log level at runtime?
I believe it comes as a debug category, i.e information required to
debug if something is not working,
dpdk bind script already lists what is bound to DPDK.
Suggestion to remove clutter?
