You don't describe what is the problem. In another mail, you say
"The original suggestion also fixes the crash that I was seeing because
of memory being reserved from a numa node with no "--socket-mem" allocated."
Please describe it clearly in the commit log.
You should also explain what this rte_memzone_reserve() is for,
and what are the incidences of your changes.
Thanks
