On a style note, better to break lines after end of sentence, or logically: Kernel version 3.2 is no longer a kernel.org longterm stable kernel. For DPDK 19.02 the minimum required kernel will be updated to the current kernel.org oldest longterm stable supported kernel 3.16, or recent versions of common distributions, notably RHEL/CentOS 7.
