I think you have already tested on ThunderX2, but as a formality, for 
the whole series:

Tested-by: Tomasz Nowicki <tnowicki@xxxxxxxxxxx>
qemu: https://github.com/eauger/qemu/tree/v4.1.0-rc0-2stage-rfcv5
kernel: https://github.com/eauger/linux/tree/v5.3.0-rc0-2stage-v9 + 
Shameer's fix patch

In my test I assigned Intel 82574L NIC and perform iperf tests.

Other folks from Marvell claimed this to be important feature so I asked 
them to review and speak up on mailing list.

Thanks,
Tomasz
