Thanks for this Kevin, I'll validate this patch with a view to add it to the 
DPDK merge branch, Minor comments below.

@Ilya: do you have any comments? If not I'll look to push this in the next day 
after testing.

Minor nit but I think the comment for this function should be extended now to 
give a more detail of what happening and context on possible return values. (3 
possible return values now). Maybe the behavior is detailed elsewhere in the 
code when rxq_cycle_sort is called but I didn't spot it.

to I'm thinking for clarity this could be documented in the comment for the 
function overall?
