Deprecation Notices
-------------------
* linux: Linux kernel version 3.2 (which is the current minimum required
version for the DPDK) is not maintained anymore. Therefore the planned
minimum required kernel version for DPDK 19.02 will be the next oldest
Long Term Stable (LTS) version which is 3.16, but compatibility for
recent distribution kernels will be kept.
* kvargs: The function ``rte_kvargs_process`` will get a new parameter
for returning key match count. It will ease handling of no-match case.
