Missing rte_mempool here.

Even though this is new API, it is replacing a necessary call to
rte_mempool_create() which was used to create the session pools.
I think we should also include that it needs to be used instead of mempool_create (being more explicit).

Just saw that check-symbol-change is complaining about this new API being stable.
Apologies for having you changing from experimental to stable, when the API needs to be experimental.

Apart from this, patch looks ok to me:
