Hi Timo,
thanks for the feedback.

Yes, this is to make DPDK EAL having these options.
I'd recommend the packaged versions of dpdk/openvswitch available in Yakkety as-is - especially once bumped to OVS-2.6-final once released.
But if not possible for now - yes you still have to apply that patch.

I wonder that it is ovs-vswitchd that complains in your example.
It shouldn't get these as options, but maybe only the message is broken and it already is DPDK complaining since it doesn't have the patches applied.
