Checks
Commit Message
The deprecated functions rte_thread_setname() and rte_ctrl_thread_create()
are replaced with the new rte_thread API:
rte_thread_setname()
can be replaced with
rte_thread_set_name()
or rte_thread_set_prefixed_name()
rte_ctrl_thread_create()
can be replaced with
rte_thread_create_control()
or rte_thread_create_internal_control()

the code above here
struct rte_thread_ctrl_params i think can now get renamed to
rte_thread_control_params and i think we can get rid of the union.
if i look through the code history i only added it to help maintain
compatibility while we had both ctrl and control thread APIs.

Yes I can do this cleanup.
Instead of rte_thread_control_params,
I would call it control_thread_params as it is private.

sounds good to me, i didn't intend to express a preference about the
name just that it could be cleaned up.

It is possible to create Control Threads using the public API

Those threads can be used for management/infrastructure tasks and are used
