userspace-tso.rst says:

When the NIC performing the segmentation is using the i40e DPDK PMD, a fix
must be included in the DPDK build, otherwise TSO will not work. The fix can
be found on `DPDK patchwork`__.

__ https://patches.dpdk.org/patch/64136/

This fix is expected to be included in the 19.11.1 release. When OVS
migrates
to this DPDK release, this limitation can be removed.

The commit is in 19.11.2 (see below), so can this be removed now or you
want to keep as info for someone using 19.11.0 ? Either way the last
paragraph deserves a little update. Other than that lgtm.
