Hi,
I beg your pardon as I didn't see that bug before.
Lacked to subscribe for this particular package :-/

It was reported on a similar bug that this works if you use systemd calls like (thnaks Thiago for that):
$ service openvswitch-switch stop
$ service openvswitch-switch start

In general dpdk and even more so openvswitch-dpdk was very experimental back then.
So before looking deeper at what was with dpdk-2.2+OVS-2.5.2 It want to encourage you to upgrade.
If you are bound to Xenial as a base release take a look if [1] is an option for you.
