[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v8 2/4] vhost: add unsafe API to clear packets in async vhost

[Cheng Jiang]

Applications need to stop DMA transfers and finish all the inflight
packets when in VM memory hot-plug case and async vhost is used. This
patch is to provide an unsafe API to clear inflight packets which
are submitted to DMA engine in vhost async data path. Update the
program guide and release notes for virtqueue inflight packets clear
API in vhost lib.
