Hi Xiaoyun,

Some of above are separate patchsets, and previous ones already merged. I guess
there is a confusion about versioning (vN) in patchsets.

The versioning is a new version of patchset if a new version required/requested.
It is not incremental changes to a driver (or a component)

The previous patchset has been applied in v4, for this new patchset it should
start from v1 again.

(Also previous v2 and v3 were different patchsets, and should reset the
versioning ... )

Hi Xiaoyun,

It looks patches in the set don't depend on each other, so I will get the set
partially, except patch 1/4, to be able to include them into the -rc2 release.
(Otherwise it may not be possible to merge flow API patch in -rc3 or later.)

Please send the patch 1/4 separately.

Except 1/4,
Series applied to dpdk-next-net/master, thanks.
