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

[ChristianEhrhardt]

I have some experiements in ppa [1]
Those led to fixes which seem to work as far as tested for now.
Since those would break the build on DPDK 17.05 which we have in binic right now I won't upload anything, but later as part of the DPDK transition.

Never the less it would be available for review at [2].

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.
