Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to LTS release 18.11.2

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 04/24/19. So please
shout if anyone has objections.

Also note that after the patch there's a diff of the upstream commit vs the
patch applied to the branch. This will indicate if there was any rebasing
needed to apply to the stable branch. If there were code changes for rebasing
(ie: not only metadata diffs), please double check that the rebase was
correctly done.

Thanks.

Kevin Traynor

Subject: [PATCH] net/octeontx: fix vdev name

[ upstream commit b4ec00a2542425c8dae92ac7fa957a12e94686d1 ]

The octeontx driver is creating vdev with name  "OCTEONTX_PMD"
which is an artifact from how RTE_PMD_REGISTER_VDEV arguments
work.

Change to use the same convention as all the other network
drivers ie "net_octeontx").

Fixes: f7be70e5130e ("net/octeontx: add net device probe and remove")
