[dpdk-stable] patch 'doc: add cross-compilation in sample apps guide' has been queued to stable release 18.08.1

[Kevin Traynor <ktraynor@redhat.com>]

Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 18.08.1

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 12/08/18. So please
shout if anyone has objections.

Also note that after the patch there's a diff of the upstream commit vs the patch applied
to the branch. If the code is different (ie: not only metadata diffs), due for example to
a change in context or macro names, please double check it.

Thanks.

Kevin Traynor
