Re: [PATCH v2 0/3] dts: queue start/stop suite

[Jeremy Spewock <jspewock@iol.unh.edu>]

Hey Dean,

One thing I think might make sense in this series is switching the
order of the commits so that the additions to the testpmd shell come
before the test suite. Since the test suite relies on these methods,
if they aren't implemented anywhere that commit would actually be
broken until the testpmd shell commit is applied. Putting the testpmd
shell patch first shows that the test suite should actually be added
after the methods are added to testpmd.
