please help backporting some patches to stable release 21.11.2

[McDaniel, Timothy]

Hi Kevin,

I'd be happy to help, but I'm not sure what the ask is here? 

Do I port the patch back to 21.11.2 and send it to you directly, or does it go to patchwork?

Thanks
Tim

> Send the backported patch to "stable at dpdk.org" but not "dev at dpdk.org".
