This set of patches changes the API and conventions around referring

Buried in the documentation set are a couple of patches where
we were using incorrect naming around primary/secondary process.
This will could/should be flagged as an API policy violation
since new API is jumping the queue of EXPERIMENTAL. But we can
vote on the exception.
The one area left to be fixed is the bonding device.
I am not too sure about the "initial" core term, it doesn't strike me as
immediately obvious as to what "initial" core does. Perhaps "main" lcore
would be more descriptive?
