* ring: Changes are planned to rte_ring APIs in release 17.05. Proposed
changes include:
- Removing build time options for the ring:
CONFIG_RTE_RING_SPLIT_PROD_CONS
CONFIG_RTE_RING_PAUSE_REP_COUNT
- Adding an additional parameter to enqueue functions to return the
amount of free space in the ring
- Adding an additional parameter to dequeue functions to return the
number of remaining elements in the ring
- Removing direct support for watermarks in the rings, since the
additional return value from the enqueue function makes it
unneeded
- Adjusting the return values of the bulk() enq/deq functions to
make them consistent with the burst() equivalents. [Note, parameter
to these functions are changing too, per points above, so compiler
will flag them as needing update in legacy code]
- Updates to some library functions e.g. rte_ring_get_memsize() to
allow for variably-sized ring elements.

* distributor: library API will be changed to incorporate a burst-oriented
API. This will include a change to ``rte_distributor_create``
to specify which type of instance to create (single or burst), and
additional calls for ``rte_distributor_poll_pkt_burst`` and
``rte_distributor_return_pkt_burst``, among others.
