[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 1/4] malloc: separate creating memseg list and malloc heap

[Anatoly Burakov]

Currently, creating external malloc heap involves also creating
a memseg list backing that malloc heap. We need to have them as
separate functions, to allow creating memseg lists without
creating a malloc heap.
