As tap is a virtual device, there's no physical way a link can be cut.
However, it has an associated kernel netdevice and possibly a remote
netdevice too. These netdevices link status may change outside of the
DPDK scope, through an external command such as:
ip link set dev tapX down
This commit implements link status notification through netlink.

By default, a tap netdevice is of no use when not fed by a separate
process. The ability to automatically feed it from another netdevice
allows applications to capture any kind of traffic normally destined to
the kernel stack.
This patch implements this ability through a new optional "remote"
parameter.
Packets matching filtering rules created with the flow API are matched
on the remote device and redirected to the tap PMD, where the relevant
action will be performed.

Supported flow rules are now mapped to TC rules on the tap netdevice.
The netlink message used for creating the TC rule is stored in struct
rte_flow. That way, by simply changing a metadata in it, we can require
for the rule deletion without further parsing.
Supported items:
- eth: src and dst (with variable masks), and eth_type (0xffff mask).
- vlan: vid, pcp, tpid, but not eid.
- ipv4/6: src and dst (with variable masks), and ip_proto (0xffff mask).
- udp/tcp: src and dst port (0xffff) mask.
Supported actions:
- DROP
- QUEUE
- PASSTHRU
It is generally not possible to provide a "last" item. However, if the
"last" item, once masked, is identical to the masked spec, then it is
supported.
Only IPv4/6 and MAC addresses can use a variable mask. All other
items need a full mask (exact match).
Support for VLAN requires kernel headers >= 4.9, checked using
auto-config.sh.

ConnectX-5 supports enhanced version of multi-packet send (MPS). An MPS Tx
descriptor can carry multiple packets either by including pointers of
packets or by inlining packets. Inlining packet data can be helpful to
better utilize PCIe bandwidth. In addition, Enhanced MPS supports hybrid
mode - mixing inlined packets and pointers in a descriptor. This feature is
enabled by default if supported by HW.

The MTU is assigned to the tap netdevice according to the argument, but
packet transmission and reception just write/read on an fd with the
default limit being the socket buffer size.
As a new rte_eth_dev_data is allocated during tap device init, ensure it
is set again dev->data->mtu.
Once the actual netdevice is created via tun_alloc(), make sure to apply
the desired MTU to the netdevice.
