[PATCH v2 0/2] remove requires forwarding restart from framework

[Nicholas Pratte <npratte@iol.unh.edu>]

v(2):
  * Reworked the organzation of testpmd start and stop commands in
    run-time MTU update and forwarding test.

While I initially thought that this would improve the cleanliness of
future test suite writing, because of the various nuances of each
testpmd run-time command, having the framework managing forwarding when
needed introduces far too many additional challenges, such that, it
simply is not worth the time implementing this.

Arguably, it also makes sense to have these mechanics (such as
forwarding restarts) written explicitly within the test suites.

Thank you Luca for pointing out this issue and its potential
side-effects.
