831dba47bd bus/vmbus: add Hyper-V virtual bus support
This patch adds support for an additional bus type Virtual Machine BUS
(VMBUS) on Microsoft Hyper-V in Windows 10, Windows Server 2016
and Azure. Most of this code was extracted from FreeBSD and some of
this is from earlier code donated by Brocade.

Only Linux is supported at present, but the code is split
to allow future FreeBSD and Windows support.

The bus support relies on the uio_hv_generic driver from Linux
kernel 4.16. Multiple queue support requires additional sysfs
interfaces which is in kernel 5.0 (a.k.a 4.17).

db10602b76 cryptodev: add min headroom and tailroom requirement
Enabling crypto devs to specify the minimum headroom and tailroom it
expects in the mbuf. For net PMDs, standard headroom has to be honoured
by applications, which is not strictly followed for crypto devs. This
prevents crypto devs from using free space in mbuf (available as
head/tailroom) for internal requirements in crypto operations. Addition
of head/tailroom requirement will help PMDs to communicate such
requirements to the application.

The availability and use of head/tailroom is an optimization if the
hardware supports use of head/tailroom for crypto-op info. For devices
that do not support using the head/tailroom, they can continue to operate
without any performance-drop.

2d349f6034 cryptodev: rename experimental private data APIs
The name private_data is confusing in these APIs:
rte_cryptodev_sym_session_set_private_data()
rte_cryptodev_sym_session_get_private_data()
It refers to data added at the end of the session hdr for
use by the application.
The session already contains sess_private_data[index]
which is used to store private pmd data and most references to private
data refer to that.
e.g. external apis
rte_cryptodev_sym_get_private_session_size() and internal
set/get_session_private_data() refer to sess_private_data[].

So rename to user_data, i.e.
rte_cryptodev_sym_session_set_user_data()
rte_cryptodev_sym_session_get_user_data()

Refers to changes introduced here:

2925e0c190 cryptodev: define value for unlimited sessions
Currently, the info structure contains the maximum number
of sessions that a device can manage.
This field was useful when the session mempool was created inside
each device, but now it is created at the application level.

Most PMDs do not have a limitation on the sessions managed,
but a few do, therefore this field must remain in the structure.
However, a new value, 0, can be used to indicate that
a device does not have an actual maximum of sessions.

ab3ce1e0c1 ethdev: remove old offload API
In DPDK 17.11, the ethdev offloads API has changed:
	commit cba7f53b717d ("ethdev: introduce Tx queue offloads API")
	commit ce17eddefc20 ("ethdev: introduce Rx queue offloads API")
The new API is documented in the programmer's guide:
	http://doc.dpdk.org/guides/prog_guide/poll_mode_drv.html#hardware-offload

For reminder, the main concepts in the new API were:
	- All offloads are disabled by default
	- Distinction between per port and per queue offloads.

The transition bits are now removed:
	- Translation of the old API in ethdev
	- rte_eth_conf.rxmode.ignore_offload_bitfield
	- ETH_TXQ_FLAGS_IGNORE

The old API bits are now removed:
	- Rx per-port rte_eth_conf.rxmode.[bit-fields]
	- Tx per-queue rte_eth_txconf.txq_flags
	- ETH_TXQ_FLAGS_NO*

70815c9eca ethdev: add new offload flag to keep CRC
DEV_RX_OFFLOAD_KEEP_CRC offload flag is added. PMDs that support
keeping CRC should advertise this offload capability.

DEV_RX_OFFLOAD_CRC_STRIP flag will remain one more release
default behavior in PMDs are to keep the CRC until this flag removed

Until DEV_RX_OFFLOAD_CRC_STRIP flag is removed:
- Setting both KEEP_CRC & CRC_STRIP is INVALID
- Setting only CRC_STRIP PMD should strip the CRC
- Setting only KEEP_CRC PMD should keep the CRC
- Not setting both PMD should keep the CRC

A helper function rte_eth_dev_is_keep_crc() has been added to be able to
change the no flag behavior with minimal changes in PMDs.

The PMDs that doesn't report the DEV_RX_OFFLOAD_KEEP_CRC offload can
remove rte_eth_dev_is_keep_crc() checks next release, related code
commented to help the maintenance task.

And DEV_RX_OFFLOAD_CRC_STRIP has been added to virtual drivers since
they don't use CRC at all, when an application requires this offload
virtual PMDs should not return error.

a106fcce2c cryptodev: rename functions to get session size
rte_cryptodev_get_header_session_size() and
rte_cryptodev_get_private_session_size() functions are
targeting symmetric sessions.

With the future addition of asymmetric operations,
these functions need to be renamed from *cryptodev_*_session_*
to *cryptodev_sym_*_session_* to be symmetric specific.

The two original functions are marked as deprecated
and will be removed in 18.08, so applications can still
use the functions in 18.05.
