Sure, I will follow the Windows support approach.

Regarding the patches organization, they were arranged logically to the
best of my knowledge.
The approach followed is to take Linux PMD code and replace the Linux
dependent part with the
FreeBSD compatible code. All the removals are of this Linux dependent code.
For the same reason,
FreeBSD meson support is added in the last patch or otherwise Linux code
would break compilation
in FreeBSD.

The patches status is still "New" on the DPDK site, please let me know when
I can submit the next version.

Regards,
Srikanth
