This patch is technically correct, and I have no issues with the code itself.

However, the submitter's mail domain (infotecs.ru) belongs to JSC
InfoTeCS, which is on the EU consolidated sanctions list. Whether a
contribution from a sanctioned entity can be accepted is a legal
question, and not one a maintainer has the authority to decide.

Holding off on merging this patch until there is direction from LF
legal and/or the DPDK governing board.
