Thank you for your kindly reminder.
Yes. It is relevant.

This document is intended to guide the user to cross-compile aarch32 DPDK. 
Usually the cross-compile host is x86, but cross-compiling on aarch64 is convenient as well, but not everyone knows how to do it. 
So it is helpful to provide relevant reference documents.

Thanks,
Phil
