Re: [dpdk-stable] please help backporting some patches to LTS release 18.11.11

[Ruifeng Wang <Ruifeng.Wang@arm.com>]

Hi Kevin,

76a4ed5b3  Ruifeng Wang     crypto/armv8: fix mempool object returning
//This patch should be dropped from missed list and not backported. The issue it fixes doesn't exist in 18.11 branch.

Reply for some patches from Phil Yang:

059a23108  Phil Yang        app/testpmd: enable burst stats for noisy VNF mode
030c21641  Phil Yang        eventdev: relax SMP barriers with C11 atomics
e84d9c62c  Phil Yang        eventdev: remove redundant reset on timer cancel
1028d63eb  Phil Yang        eventdev: use C11 atomics for lcore timer armed flag
//These patches should be dropped from missed list and not backported. They are optimization or not critical bug fix.

d70a869db  Phil Yang        net/ixgbe: fix link state timing on fiber ports
//This patch depends on 819d0d1d5 and d68ab7a9f that on the same list. 

Thanks.
