Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 19.11.6

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 11/11/20. 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.

Queued patches are on a temporary branch at:
https://github.com/bluca/dpdk-stable

This queued commit can be viewed at:
https://github.com/bluca/dpdk-stable/commit/43baac4112f15c2df90258293267c6b360b63cda

Thanks.

Subject: [PATCH] doc: remove obsolete deprecation notice for power library

[ upstream commit f348642d6f0d7da89bf6e156ff15a8f89c1db5c6 ]

Remove notice announcing an already-implemented change.

In 19.05, rte_power_set_env was changed to return -1 in cases where
the environment was already set up, and for the same release, a
deprecation notice was added.
This patch removes that notice.

The API change was tested by calling rte_power_set_env twice. The first
call succeeded, and the second call failed, as expected.

Fixes: 5a5f3178d4a8 ("power: return error when environment already set")

-* power: ``rte_power_set_env`` function will no longer return 0 on attempt

-  In this case the function will return -1 unless the environment is unset first
