This series fixes the support of indirect mbufs when the application
reserves a private area in mbufs. This is done adding a new field
in each mbuf storing the size of this private area. Another option
would have been to store that in the mbuf pool private info, but
as we have enough room in mbuf, it's faster to have it in the mbuf.
The series also removes the limitation that rte_pktmbuf_clone() is
only allowed on direct (non-cloned) mbufs.
Changes in v2:
- do not change the use of MBUF_EXT_MEM() in vhost
- change rte_mbuf_from_baddr() to rte_mbuf_from_indirect(), removing
one parameter
- fix and rework rte_pktmbuf_detach()
- move m->priv_size in second mbuf cache line
- fix mbuf free in test error case
