[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 1/2] net: fixup RARP generation

[Yuanhan Liu <yliu@fridaylinux.org>]

Due to a mistake operation from me, older version (v10) was merged to
master branch. It's the v11 should be applied. However, the master branch
is not rebase-able. Thus, this patch is made, from the diff between v10
and v11.

Code is from Xiao Wang.
