The ownership of a port is implicit in DPDK.
Making it explicit is better from the next reasons:
1. It will define well who is in charge of the port usage synchronization.
2. A library could work on top of a port.
3. A port can work on top of another port.
Also in the fail-safe case, an issue has been met in testpmd.
We need to check that the application is not trying to use a port which
is already managed by fail-safe.
A port owner is built from owner id(number) and owner name(string) while
the owner id must be unique to distinguish between two identical entity
instances and the owner name can be any name.
The name helps to logically recognize the owner by different DPDK
entities and allows easy debug.
Each DPDK entity can allocate an owner unique identifier and can use it
and its preferred name to owns valid ethdev ports.
Each DPDK entity can get any port owner status to decide if it can
manage the port or not.
The mechanism is synchronized for both the primary process threads and
the secondary processes threads to allow secondary process entity to be
a port owner.
Add a synchronized ownership mechanism to DPDK Ethernet devices to
avoid multiple management of a device by different DPDK entities.
The current ethdev internal port management is not affected by this
feature.

This commit adds a new function rte_eal_cleanup().
The function serves as a hook to allow DPDK to release
internal resources (e.g.: hugepage allocations).
This function allows DPDK to become more like an ordinary
library, where the library context itself can be initialized
and cleaned up by the application.
The rte_exit() and rte_panic() functions must be considered,
particularly if they should call rte_eal_cleanup() to release any
resources or not. This patch adds the cleanup to rte_exit(),
but does not clean up on rte_panic(). The reason to not clean
up on panicing is that the developer may wish to inspect the
exact internal state of EAL and hugepages.

In case of inline protocol processed ingress traffic, the packet may not
have enough information to determine the security parameters with which
the packet was processed. In such cases, application could get metadata
from the packet which could be used to identify the security parameters
with which the packet was processed.
Application could register "userdata" with the security session, and
this could be retrieved from the metadata of inline processed packets.
The metadata returned by "rte_security_get_pkt_metadata()" will be
device specific. Also the driver is expected to return the application
registered "userdata" as is, without any modifications.

The pointer to the user parameter of the callback registration is
automatically pass to the callback function.
There is no point to allow changing this user parameter by a caller.
That's why this parameter is always set to NULL by PMDs and set only
in ethdev layer before calling the callback function.
The history is that the user parameter was initially used
by the callback implementation to pass some information
between the application and the driver:
c1ceaf3ad056 ("ethdev: add an argument to internal callback function")
Then a new parameter has been added to leave the user parameter
to its standard usage of context given at registration:
d6af1a13d7a1 ("ethdev: add return values to callback process API")
The NULL parameter in the internal callback processing function
is now removed. It makes clear that the callback parameter is user
managed and opaque from a DPDK point of view.

This patch adds a framework that allows GRO on tunneled packets.
Furthermore, it leverages that framework to provide GRO support for
VxLAN-encapsulated packets. Supported VxLAN packets must have an outer
IPv4 header, and contain an inner TCP/IPv4 packet.
VxLAN GRO doesn't check if input packets have correct checksums and
doesn't update checksums for output packets. Additionally, it assumes
the packets are complete (i.e., MF==0 && frag_off==0), when IP
fragmentation is possible (i.e., DF==0).

Added new callbacks to notify about socket connection status.
As destroy_device is used for virtqueue processing *pause* as well as
connection close, the user has no distinction between those.
Consider the following scenario:
rte_vhost: received SET_VRING_BASE message,
calling destroy_device() as usual
user: end-user asks to remove the device (together with socket file),
OK, device is not *in use* - that's NOT the behavior we want
calling rte_vhost_driver_unregister() etc.
Instead of changing new_device/destroy_device callbacks and breaking
the ABI, a set of new functions new_connection/destroy_connection
has been added.
