Hi Ilya,

These patches were already committed into the OVS-DPDK sub-tree that
Darrell is maintaining after they were under review for a long time (4
months and 7 revisions). I will reply to each comment and address the
comments around correctness by way of follow up patches.

thanks,
Kevin.

This struct follows the coding style "comments" section example struct.
I'll check the other ones.

I think the current name is ok. Maybe not perfect, but ok.

no, it wasn't necessary to remove, but not worthwhile of patch now.

I don't generally like to mix fixes with new code, even if it's small as
a reviewer has to think about it and it alters the commit message.
There's another coding style issue you caught elsewhere, so I'll fix
them together in a follow up patch.
