[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 1/4] test/lpm: fix cycle calculation in rcu qsbr perf

Fix incorrect calculations for LPM adds, LPM deletes,
and average cycles in RCU QSBR perf tests

Since, rcu qsbr tests run for 'RCU_ITERATIONS' and not
'ITERATIONS', replace 'ITERATIONS' with 'RCU_ITERATIONS'
for calculating adds, deletes, and cycles.

Also, for multi-writer perf test, each writer only writes
half of NUM_LDEPTH_ROUTE_ENTRIES.
For 2 writers, total adds (or deletes) should be
(RCU_ITERATIONS * NUM_LDEPTH_ROUTE_ENTRIES) instead of
(2 * RCU_ITERATIONS * NUM_LDEPTH_ROUTE_ENTRIES).

Since, for both the single and multi writer tests, total adds/deletes
is equal to (RCU_ITERATIONS * NUM_LDEPTH_ROUTE_ENTRIES),
this has been replaced with a macro 'TOTAL_WRITES' and furthermore,
'g_writes' has been removed since it is always a fixed value
equal to TOTAL_WRITES.
