Support for Mellanox ConnectX-5 family of 10/25/40/50/100 Gbps adapters
has been added to the existing mlx5 PMD.
* **Updated the mlx5 driver.**
* Improve Tx performance by using vector logic.
* Improve RSS balancing when number of queues is not a power of two.
* Generic flow API support for Ethernet, IPv4, IPv4, UDP, TCP, VLAN and
VXLAN pattern items with DROP and QUEUE actions.
* Support for extended statistics.
* Addressed several data path bugs.
* As of MLNX_OFED 4.0-1.0.1.0, the Toeplitz RSS hash function is not
symmetric anymore for consistency with other PMDs.
* **virtio-user with vhost-kernel as another exceptional path.**
Previously, we upstreamed a virtual device, virtio-user with vhost-user
