Hi Martin

I've submitted v2 of the patch [1]. I just replaced vector insns with regular
statements.  This is just for ease of maintenance because I'm about to add
vectorized PMD for ARM NEON.  In terms of functionality and performance it is
identical.

Please proceed your testing with this and let me know the result.

[dpdk-dev,v2] net/mlx5: fix deadlock due to buffered slots in Rx SW ring
, which is at http://dpdk.org/dev/patchwork/patch/29879/

Thanks,
