-* kni: remove KNI ethtool support. To clarify, this is not to remove the KNI,
-  but only to remove ethtool support of it that is disabled by default and
-  can be enabled via ``CONFIG_RTE_KNI_KMOD_ETHTOOL`` config option.
-  Existing KNI ethtool implementation is only supported by ``igb`` & ``ixgbe``
-  drivers, by using a copy of kernel drivers in DPDK. This model cannot be
-  extended to all drivers in DPDK and it is too much effort to maintain
-  kernel modules in DPDK. As a result users won't be able to use ``ethtool``
-  via ``igb`` & ``ixgbe`` anymore.

-* meter: New ``rte_color`` definition will be added in 19.02 and that will
-  replace ``enum rte_meter_color`` in meter library in 19.05. This will help
-  to consolidate color definition, which is currently replicated in many places,
-  such as: rte_meter.h, rte_mtr.h, rte_tm.h.
