059a231080  Phil Yang        app/testpmd: enable burst stats for noisy VNF mode

Reply for Phil.
This patch should not be backported. 
It is based on another patch (0e4b196326fb) that is not backported because not being a bug fix.
As this patch only adds message for debugging and is not fixing functionality issue, it can be omitted by stable release.

Thanks.
