The coremask option in DPDK is difficult to use and we should be
promoting the use of the corelist (-l) option. The patch series
adjusts the docs to use -l EAL option instead of the -c option.

The patch series doc change only and is not required to be done
in 17.02 release, but should be added to the 17.05 release.
The -c option will be kept and not removed for now unless in the
future we decide to deprecate the code.

v2 - Fix taskset back to using -c

In case you make new revisions, I think you can squash every patches
in a single one. They are all doing the same thing in different files.
I have been known to squash patches before, so did not want to do it again :-)

Will submit a single patch as v3.

Keith
