Since a number of contributors to DPDK have submitted patches to DPDK
under more than one email address, we should maintain a mailmap file
to properly track their commits using "shortlog",
and to do accurate automatic Cc with "get_maintainer.pl".
It also helps fix up any mangled names, for example, with
surname/firstname reversed, or with incorrect capitalization.
By keeping this file in the DPDK repository,
rather than committers maintaining their own copies,
it allows individual contributors to edit it
to update their own email address preferences if so desired.
While at it, update our checkpatches.sh script
and add some documentation to help new contributors.

The candidate list for backports lists partial fixes like:
"(21.02 (partially fixed in 21.08))"
That is useful to identify fixes meant for later releases, but
indirectly applying to older ones as well.
While the devscript has no access to the stable tree to fully check
if the respective interim commit is present there, reporting the commit
id will still help to check it later - because only if the interim commit
id is in the stable tree, then also the new fix is a real candidate
for backporting.
The above would become "(21.02 (partially fixed in c30751afc3 @ 21.08))"

It was important in the past to select anything with "fix" in the
headline, but recently more often created false positives and work
to sort things out than identifying many helpful patches.
The community and processes around DPDK matured enough that developers
(rightfully) expect to rely on "Fixes:" or "stable@" marking for
backports.
Therefore do no more include patches that just include the word fix
in the backport candidate list.

When passing the patch to checkpatches.sh through stdin, the subject is
retrieved by reading the input until a "Subject:" entry is found. The
rest of the input is piped to checkpatch.pl.
Since the "From:" line is before the "Subject:" line, it won't be sent to
checkpatch.pl, which won't be able to get the author of the commit.
The following error will appear:

The addition of the bus_info field did not account for the fact that the
PCI bus can be scanned multiple times (like for device hotplug and other
uses in SPDK).
Indeed, during pci_scan_one() for devices that were already registered,
the pci_common_set() overwrites the bus_info field, leaking the
previously allocated memory.
Since the bus_info content is fixed for a PCI device, we can simply skip
allocation if dev->bus_info is already set.

This patch clarifies the handling of following cases

- If rte_eth_dev_start() returns (-EAGAIN) for some port,
it cannot be started right now and start operation
must be retried.
- If rte_eth_dev_stop() returns (-EBUSY) for some port,
it cannot be stopped in the current state.
When stopping the port in testpmd fails,
port's state is switched back to STARTED
to allow users to manually retry stopping the port.
No additional changes in testpmd are required to handle
failures to start the port.
If rte_eth_dev_start() fails, port's state is switched to STOPPED
and users are allowed to retry the operation.
