Re: [dpdk-dev] [dpdk-stable] v17.11.5-rc2 patches review and test

[Yongseok Koh <yskoh@mellanox.com>]

Hi,

I'm going to release 17.11.5 this week.
Per Intel's request, the following patch from 18.05 has been merged since 17.11.5-rc2

	net/i40e: fix link status update [1]
	
Let me know if there's anything missing.

Thanks,
Yongseok
