If you're trying to use QAT with DPDK cryptodev API then there's no need for steps 4,5,6,7
above. These are steps for using the QA API, i.e. cpaCyXXX APIs.

Also the ICP_WITHOUT_IOMMU condition is only needed if intending to access the QAT HW from 
the Host. If you intend to access the crypto services on QAT via the VF on a VM, then you can 
use the standard out of the box install for a HOST.

Once the VF device is passed through to the VM, on the VM it can be passed straight through 
to the user-space DPDK QAT PMD without a QAT kernel driver.
i.e. follow the bind commands on http://dpdk.org/doc/guides/cryptodevs/qat.html
to bind the VF to either igb_uio or vfio-pci

Then build your application to use the cryptodev APIs, see 
http://dpdk.org/doc/guides/sample_app_ug/ipsec_secgw.html
for an example of how to do this.
If you just want to get it up and running without a traffic generator, you can use the test app to 
run a sanity check against any of the crypto poll mode drivers, e.g. to run some basic functional tests
against the QAT PMD, e.g.
use dpdk/usertools/dpdk-setup.sh to allocate huge pages
start test app, e.g. test -n1 -l1  
(The test app has moved in a recent release, you should find it at either dpdk/build/app/ or dpdk/build/build/test/test ) 
Run the qat test suite with 
>cryptodev_qat_autotest
