Title:
  Enable OVS-DPDK support on arm64

Status in dpdk package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in openvswitch package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  DPDK works on arm64 since yakkety, and upstream worked on further stabilizing it.
  For the Artful cycle we should try to enable OVS-DPDK on arm64.

  This needs the new DPDK 17.05 to be completed and will therefore be
  part of this work.
