Documentation for burst mode changes to testpmd would need an update.
I guess, only when the user explicitly sets 'set burst 0' would the
driver defaults be picked up - isn't it?
Yes.
Maybe something like this:

In the above, I think the existing documented default value needs to be
changed. It is set to '#define DEF_PKT_BURST 32'
Had a quick look and it looks like that discrepancy has been there since
the documentation was converted to .rst in 2014.
If you add that, please use my ack for next revision.
(For patch 1/4, I had already given my Ack in v2)
I'll add in the snippet above. 18.05 integration deadline has I think
passed, but documentation changes will still get in.
