dpdk.org server experienced a quite heavy load this morning, with many
clients requesting git related operations through http.
I am not sure what or who triggered this, but I just remembered this patch here.

Downloading a rc4 tarball through dpdk.org cgit is to be avoided.
dpdk.org server does not cache this kind of operations, it is heavy on
cpu, memory and bandwidth.


I think OVS should switch to the github mirror, this would work for
both rc and final release tarballs.
IOW: wget https://github.com/DPDK/dpdk/archive/refs/tags/v$1.tar.gz

One drawback is that github does not seem to provide xz compressed
tarballs, so you would need to update the script further.
