[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v4 2/2] net/mlx5: fix instruction hotspot on replenishing Rx buffer

On replenishing Rx buffers for vectorized Rx, mbuf->buf_addr isn't needed
to be accessed as it is static and easily calculated from the mbuf address.
Accessing the mbuf content causes unnecessary load stall and it is worsened
on ARM.

v4:
* no change
v3:
* rte_mbuf_buf_addr_default() -> rte_mbuf_buf_addr()
v2:
* use the newly introduced API - rte_mbuf_buf_addr_default()
* fix error in assert
