Hi Xiaoyun,

It looks patches in the set don't depend on each other, so I will get the set
partially, except patch 1/4, to be able to include them into the -rc2 release.
(Otherwise it may not be possible to merge flow API patch in -rc3 or later.)

Please send the patch 1/4 separately.

Except 1/4,
Series applied to dpdk-next-net/master, thanks.
