[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v1 2/2] doc: update usage field for port-queue

[Vipin Varghese]

Usage option q is reflect how many port-queue pair can run per lcore.
Updating usage field to refelct port-queue is done for one RX and TX
only.

[PATCH] doc: fix description of maximum rx queues per lcore option

[Stephen Hemminger]

the number of queues per lcore.
