No, I'd rather remove it if you really insist. As noted before the way we set
up the version map files means we currently have no need for this particular
directive. I only included it for completeness. I think an example use in
light of that fact would only confuse people. If you're going to draw a line in
the sand around it, I'll just remove it.

I don't understand, is it not obvious that the DPDK_2.0 node contains the 2.0
version of the symbol and the DPDK_2.1 node contains the 2.1 version of the
symbol?
