[dpdk-stable] please help backporting some patches to stable release 16.11.1

[Yuanhan Liu]

Hi commit authors (and maintainers),

I tried to pick following commits from upstream to stable branch 16.11,
but I failed: they can't be applied. I'm wondering can the authors check
the following list and backport some patches belong to them?

FYI, branch 16.11 at git://dpdk.org/dpdk-stable is the place those patches
should be packported to. It'd be great if you could do that in one week. If
so, please do me a favor by adding a heading line like following before the
commit log body:

    [ backported from upstream commit xxx ]

Example: http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable/commit/?h=16.07&id=c4831394c7d1944d8ec27d52c22997f20d19718e

Please let me know if you have any comments, say, need more time, or it's
worthless to packport it. And please send it to "stable at dpdk.org", but not
"dev at dpdk.org".

If you don't have time recently, you could backport them later, then they
will be candidates for 16.11.2.

Thanks.
