There is a work in progress about TSO:
	http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.networking.dpdk.devel/2541/focus=2553
This API was discussed and implemented for ixgbe.
Then there was an agreement to rework mbuf in 1.8 version to implement TSO
on top of it. Then it was suggested to rebase his work:
	http://dpdk.org/ml/archives/dev/2014-September/006151.html

How does your patchset match with Olivier's work on TSO and ixgbe driver?
I would like to ensure the API works fine for all TSO-capable driver,
this would be a good start.

Thanks
