It could be part of 17.02 but there are some issues:

The x86 part did not receive any ack from x86 maintainers.

checkpatch reports some warnings, especially about counting elements
of an array. Please use RTE_DIM.

The file in generic/ is for doxygen only.
Please check how it is done for other files.

The description is "Functions for vectorised implementation of memset()."
Does it mean memset from glibc does not use vector instructions?

The functional autotest is not integrated in the basic test suite.

I wish this kind of review would be done by someone else.
As it has not a big performance impact, this series could wait the next release.
By the way, have you tried to work on glibc, as I had suggested?
