[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v3 30/42] event/octeontx2: add devargs to disable NPA

From: Pavan Nikhilesh <pbhagavatula at marvell.com>

If the chunks are allocated from NPA then TIM can automatically free
them when traversing the list of chunks.
Add devargs to disable NPA and use software mempool to manage chunks.
Example:

	--dev "0002:0e:00.0,tim_disable_npa=1"

+- ``TIM disable NPA``
+
+  By default chunks are allocated from NPA then TIM can automatically free
+  them when traversing the list of chunks. The ``tim_disable_npa`` devargs
+  parameter disables NPA and uses software mempool to manage chunks
+  For example::
+
+    --dev "0002:0e:00.0,tim_disable_npa=1"
