[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v3 02/11] net/virtio: add in-order feature bit definition

If VIRTIO_F_IN_ORDER has been negotiated, driver will use descriptors in
ring order: starting from offset 0 in the table, and wrapping around at
the end of the table. Also introduce use_inorder_[rt]x flag for
selection of IN_ORDER [RT]x handlers.
