[PATCH] net/liquidio:fix Unable to update lio_dev->linfo.link var When I was using VPP +dpdk-18.02+liqudio CN23xx, I encountered such a bug. When VPP called dpdk_device_start to initialize DPDK liqudio drive, I found that initialization failed. The reason for the failure is that VF MTU > PF MTU, but PF MTU has been modified to 9600 (> VF MTU). Finally, I am location that DPDK liqudio drive cannot get the correct PF driver to liqudio network card. It is due to the fact that when VPP calls dpdk_device_start to initialize DPDK liqudio drive, this time, lio_dev->linfo. Link var already exists in the old value, not empty. Cause lio_dev - > linfo. Link. Link_status64 != 0 statement is set up, and the link info is stopped directly to liqudio card, resulting in no get accurate pf mtu. I did a test model to reproduce the bug, which is to add rte_eth_dev_set_mtu(portid,
