T-REX: change relative rate values to absolute units
Instead of using realative values expressed in percentage of linerate rather use absolute values to assure consistency of results across NICs with various speeds (10G, 40G, 100G, ...) Change-Id: Ifd455d823e80002c277deaf8cb8295c81b59bf4a Signed-off-by: Miroslav Miklus <mmiklus@cisco.com>
