Hi Jeff, 

Variables, functions, program names, file names and any other literal should 
be in backtick quotes, as outlined in the DPDK Documentation: 

http://dpdk.org/doc/guides/contributing/documentation.html#code-and-literal-block-sections

So uio_pci_generic should be quoted with backticks. If you want to add bind then do:
``--bind= uio_pci_generic`` or similar.

Either way it shouldn't be quoted using the "smart" Unicode or non-Unicode quotes as in the
patch. All quotes should be straight ASCII double quotes (""). The Html/PDF renderers
will convert to the correct quotes as required.

Also, this link generates a doc build error. I think because of the space
between the < and the https:.
