Yes, yes. I am going to provide more detailed changes and explaining history on what changes was made. This split development over time is the best example to show that need.

Sure, that will be done.

Sure, app_load_cfg_profile -> cfg_load_subport is also not called several times, just once

Ah .. nice spot. But, cant we do that with additional check, using what we have?
For an instance:
If (cman_params.cman_mode == RTE_SCHED_CMAN_PIE || cman_params.cman_mode == RTE_SCHED_CMAN_RED) {
Then set subport_params[i].cman_params to cman_params.
}
