Patchset applied to dpdk-next-crypto.

Subject for "doc/qat: fix typos and make cosmetic changes" changed to "doc/qat: correct typo and make cosmetic changes"

to avoid git log error.

Thanks,

Which error? Lack of Fixes tag?
As a committer, you must be sure the Fixes tags and Cc: stable@dpdk.org
are all set. It is mandatory to know what should be backported and where.
Even typos should be backported.

It will make future backporting of doc fixes harder.
That's a good example to discuss.
OK to keep it as is, and will discuss it with maintainers of stable branches
during the Dublin event, in order to make the policies clear.
