Thank you for the fix. I suggest the following title instead:

mbuf: fix bulk allocation when debug enabled

Please refer to the guidelines:
http://dpdk.org/doc/guides/contributing/patches.html#commit-messages-subject-line

A description would have been welcome, for instance:

The debug assertions when allocating a raw mbuf are not correct since
commit 8f094a9ac5d7 ("mbuf: set mbuf fields while in pool"),
which triggers a panic when using this function in debug mode.

Change the expected number of segments to 1 instead of 0, and
factorize these sanity checks.


Fixes: 8f094a9ac5d7 ("mbuf: set mbuf fields while in pool")


Can you please submit a v2 with these changes? You can validate
your changes with checkpatches.sh and check-git-log.sh.

Thanks,
Olivier
