is defined in librte_sched in a non-generic way. The new generic format
will contain: queue ID, traffic class, color. Field size will not change.
* mbuf: the macro ``RTE_MBUF_INDIRECT()`` will be removed in v18.08 or later and
replaced with ``RTE_MBUF_CLONED()`` which is already added in v18.05. As
``EXT_ATTACHED_MBUF`` is newly introduced in v18.05, ``RTE_MBUF_INDIRECT()``
can no longer be mutually exclusive with ``RTE_MBUF_DIRECT()`` if the new
experimental API ``rte_pktmbuf_attach_extbuf()`` is used. Removal of the macro
is to fix this semantic inconsistency.
* ethdev: a new Tx and Rx offload API was introduced on 17.11.
In the new API, offloads are divided into per-port and per-queue offloads.
Offloads are disabled by default and enabled per application request.
