l3fwd app expects PMDs to return packets whose L2 header is
16-byte aligned due to usage of _mm_load_si128()/_mm_store_si128()
intrinsics in the app. However, most of the protocol stacks expects
packets such that its IP/L3 header be aligned on a 16-byte boundary.
Based on the recommendations received on dpdk-dev, we are changing
the l3fwd app to use _mm_loadu_si128()/_mm_loadu_si128() so that the
address need not be 16-byte aligned and thereby preventing crash.
We have tested that there is no performance impact due to this
change.

Latest mbuf changes (priv_size addition and related fixes)
exposed small problem with testpmd and few other sample apps:
when mbuf size is exaclty 2KB or less, that causes
ixgbe PMD to select scattered RX even for configs with 'normal'
max packet length (max_rx_pkt_len == ETHER_MAX_LEN).
To overcome that problem and unify the code, new macro was created
to represent recommended minimal buffer length for mbuf.
When appropriate, samples are updated to use that macro.

The rte_pktmbuf structure was initially included in the rte_mbuf
structure. This was needed when there was 2 types of mbuf (ctrl and
packet). As the control mbuf has been removed, we can merge the
rte_pktmbuf into the rte_mbuf structure.
Advantages of doing this:
- the access to mbuf fields is easier (ex: m->data instead of m->pkt.data)
- make the structure more consistent: for instance, there was no reason
to have the ol_flags field in rte_mbuf
- it will allow a deeper reorganization of the rte_mbuf structure in the
next commits, allowing to gain several bytes in it

Latest changes introduced a small degradation for the corner case
when each input packet is destined to the different port.
For the test-case when 1 core manages 4 ports and packet stream looks like:
IPV4_DSTPORT0, IPV4_DSTPORT1, IPV4_DSTPORT3, IPV4_DSTPORT4, IPV4_DSTPORT0, ...
non-optimised code path outperforms optimised one by 2-3%.
These changes supposed to close that gap.
From my testing: now for the case described above optimised code path
produces same numbers as non-optimised one.
For other test-cases numbers remain about the same.

With latest HW and optimised RX/TX path there is a huge gap between
tespmd iofwd and l3fwd performance results.
So there is an attempt to optimise l3fwd LPM code path and reduce the gap:
- Instead of processing each input packet up to completion -
divide packet processing into several stages and perform
stage by stage for the whole burst.
- Unroll things by the factor of 4 whenever possible.
- Use SSE instincts for some operations (bswap, replace MAC addresses, etc).
- Avoid TX packet buffering whenever possible.
- Move some checks from RX/TX into setup phase.
Note that new(optimized) code path can be switched on/off by setting
ENABLE_MULTI_BUFFER_OPTIMIZE macro to 1/0.
Some performance data:
SUT: dual-socket board IVB 2.8GHz, 2x1GB pages.
4 ports on 4 NICs (all at socket 0) connected to the traffic generator.
kernel: 3.11.3-201.fc19.x86_64, gcc: 4.8.2.
64B packets, using the packet flooding method.
All 4 ports are managed by one logical core:
Optimised scalar PMD RX/TX was used.

IPV6-CONT-BURST : +13%
IPV4/IPV6-CONT-BURST: +8%

IPV4-CONT-BURST - IPV4 packets all packets from the one input port

IPV6-CONT-BURST - IPV6 packets all packets from the one input port

IPV4/IPV6-CONT-BURST - mix of the first 2 with interleave=1
