Could you please add some more details about why it is finally
kept? I think it could be helpful for people that did not follow
the thread http://dpdk.org/dev/patchwork/patch/6410/

You can also reference the commit id of the patch that
introduced the deprecation notice.

It could also be a good occasion to remind the definition of
imissed: number of packets dropped by hardware because the software
does not poll fast enough (= queue full)

Thanks!
Olivier
