Update word list with Marvell specific acronyms.

CPT  -> Cryptographic Accelerator Unit
CQ   -> Completion Queue
LBK  -> Loopback Interface Unit
LMT  -> Large Atomic Store Unit

How LMT means that?

LMT is how the Large Atomic Store Unit in the CNXK devices is referred to as.
It will be difficult to put a 1:1 mapping between the letters and actual
names.
