I think, it may not have anything to do with N1SDP, It could be just
the prefetch window timing
with MLX5 driver on Tx mbuf on touching  with tx_burst() and L1 cache
pressure timing.
I think, tuning the driver parameters can switch the window to some driver code.

On Octeontx2, this change has regression of -3.1% flow lookup miss
case. so NACK.
