[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v7 3/3] test/lpm: add RCU integration performance tests

[Ruifeng Wang <ruifeng.wang@arm.com>]

From: Honnappa Nagarahalli <honnappa.nagarahalli@arm.com>

Add performance tests for RCU integration. The performance
difference with and without RCU integration is very small
(~1% to ~2%) on both Arm and x86 platforms.
