[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2] memory: make eal_get_virtual_area() aware of base-virtaddr alignment

[Dariusz Stojaczyk]

From: Dariusz Stojaczyk <dariuszx.stojaczyk at intel.com>

Whenever a calculated base-virtaddr offset had to be
manually aligned to requested page_sz, we did not take
account of that alignment in incrementing the base-virtaddr
offset further. The next requested virtual area could print
a warning "hint [...] not respected!" and let the system
pick an address instead. As a result, this breaks secondary
process support on many system configurations.

Fixes: b7cc54187ea4 ("mem: move virtual area function in common directory")

Changes from v1:
 * do not increment next_baseaddr if its currently NULL.
   Otherwise this patch breaks applications without base-virtaddr specified
 * switched to explicit `!= NULL` comparisons
