Both these tests pass for me on my system (a two NUMA node system) with
18.05+ (including 18.11-rc0).

As you mentioned before, losing the "--socket-mem" argument would be the
preferred solution, but that seems to bring further issues and, in my
system, testpmd doesn't seem to forward the traffic between ports. I
think that will require further investigation to get to the bottom of
it, but until then this should run successfully on multi NUMA node
systems by allocating memory for each node:

I can have a look at the rest of the series later this week if no one
beats me to it.
