Hey Thomas, I'm just following up with the team on this. There is no 
actual build dependency on the QAT PMD to have the driver installed, 
it's only required for management of the PF and allocation of VF's which 
are subsequently used within DPDK. The only external header dependencies 
outside of DPDK should be on openssl/libcrypto.
