We didn't plan to maintain a branch for 25.03.
Do you think we should?
The next LTS branch will be 25.11.

This patch can be squashed with the next one,
but it is a detail which can be handled by the maintainer.

<Pravin> SPDK master uses DPDK 25.03 as sub-module. It would be only appropriate to have the DPDK 25.03 also have this patch to correspond with what SPDK is using.
