  As per srTCM RFC 2697, we should be updating the E bucket only after the
C bucket overflows. This patch fixes the current DPDK implementation,
where we are updating both the buckets simultaneously at the same rate
(CIR) which results in token accumulation rate of (2*CIR).

v2:
Removed the else part and instead added a default initialization of te.
