This patchset adds support for DPDK v17.11:
- the first patch introduces minor code updates to accomodate DPDK API
  changes, and also updates Documentation and travis scripts.
- the second patch adds a new global configuration option,
  vhost-iommu-support; this is required in order to take advantage of
  the vHost IOMMU feature introduced in DPDK v17.11.

---

v2->v1:  - refactor vHost IOMMU enablement mechanism (use a global config
           value, instead of the previous per-port approach).
