[dpdk-stable] [PATCH 1/4] examples/l3fwd-power: fix non Rx intr supported platform

[Nikhil Agarwal]

This existing code cause the platform to start receiving packet
immediately irrespective of interrupts available or not.
If the platform does not support Rx interrupt, it shall not start
receiving packets immediately. It shall let the timer management work.

[dpdk-stable] [PATCH 2/4] examples/l3fwd-power: fix the timer for any platform freq

[Nikhil Agarwal]

The code assumes that the platform frequency is 2GHz.
This patch add support for dynamically detecting platform frequence.
