Want suggestions on this.
1. The release notes gets coding style warning because checkpatch
is checking that release note matches current release, and release number
hasn't change yet.  Should I just wait?

2. The OVSrobot is looking into the port library to see the kni symbols.
But port is marked as deprecated already.
Perhaps we should just pull out port first?
