Re: [dpdk-stable] request backporting some patches to 16.07.2

[Maciej Czekaj <maciej.czekaj@caviumnetworks.com>]

Hi,

Excuse me for late response.
I tried to apply the patch

6d3cbd5  Kamil Rytarowski net/thunderx: remove private data to ethdev link


but it strongly depends on previous patches from the whole patchset 
submitted to 16.11 so I think it does not make sense to apply that fix 
to 16.07.

Thanks
Maciej
