The reason why I did not use a macro poisoning here is because this flag
is still valid when used with the mask. Actually, checking this flag
alone still works and does the same as before but I wanted to highlight
that it should now be used with the mask.

Your comment makes me think that maybe the new flags could have
different names to avoid to keep old-style tests on this flag. On the
other hand, I think the name is already the good one, and doing this
would break the API and affect large pieces of code in dpdk.

Opinions are welcome here :)

Thanks for commenting
Olivier
