My reasoning is a bit different, DPDK is using in embedded boxes too
where performance has
more weight than ABI stuff. I think we need to focus first on slow
path APIs ABI stuff.

I spend a few cycles to apply this patch +
http://mails.dpdk.org/archives/dev/2020-February/158586.html
on top of the tree, there are a lot of conflicts. If I get a mergeable
patch then I will test it on an arm64 box.
