[Bug 1733325] Re: Update in Bionic to match DPDK 17.11

[ChristianEhrhardt]

We had discussions on a 17.05 compatible change, but while nicer and
upload right now that would be a Delta from upstream OVS so not going
that direction.

Title:
  Update in Bionic to  match DPDK 17.11

Status in openvswitch package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Hi,
  I expect that we will use OVS 2.9 which will most likely get the changes anyway.
  But I wanted to document the need and provide changes until then in case needed.

  We currently work on DPDK 17.11 in Debian and once complete and tested
  in ppa's but OVS 2.9 is not yet out I'd fix OVS in Bionic to build
  against DPDK 17.11 to complete the transition.

  This not only is a patch, but also some changes against d/control to
  match the new DPDK version.
