The rte_mempool structure is changed, which will cause an ABI change
for this structure. Providing backward compat is not reasonable
here as this structure is used in multiple defines/inlines.
Allow mempool cache support to be dynamic depending on if the
mempool being created needs cache support. Saves about 1.5M of
memory used by the rte_mempool structure.
Allocating small mempools which do not require cache can consume
larges amounts of memory if you have a number of these mempools.

It has always been a mystery (at least to me before) that how many
mbuf is enough while creating an mbuf pool. While current macro
NUM_MBUFS_PER_PORT gives your some insights, it's not that accurate:
it doesn't consider the case we may receive a big packet, say 64K
when TSO is enabled.
We actually have tried to fix it once before, with commit 5499c1fc9b
("examples/vhost: fix mbuf allocation"), but it just workarounded it
by enlarging it a bit so that the case described in the commit log
by passes. So, while trying to fix it ultimately, I'm thinking how
big is big enough, and what are the factors need consider to figure
out a proper value.
Therefore, here you are. I introduced a helper function to create
the mbuf pool, and do the "how many mbufs are needed" calculation
there. Also, I put detailed comments how that comes, to serve as
the guidelines.

The "drv_flags" is set with device as the input, which means different
device (say, modern vs legacy) could end up with a different value. And
the fact that "drv_flags" is shared by all devices means that every time
we add a new device, it simply overwrites the value configured from the
last device.
Therefore, when two virtio devices have different flags, it may lead to
wrong result, such as virtio would set irq config when it's not supported.
Making the flag per device (using "dev->data->dev_flags") could let us
have different value for each device, which would avoid the above issue.

In Table 8-16 of the "Intel® Ethernet Controller XL710 Datasheet" it is
stated that when the whole packet is written to a single buffer, the
header length field in the descriptor will be 0. This means that when
extracting the packet/data_len field from the descriptor in the driver
we do not need to mask out the extra header-length bits.
Inside the vector driver, this reduces the need to pull all four pktlen
fields into a single register to work on. Instead of a shift and mask,
we now need to only do a shift. Therefore, we can work on each descriptor
independently, processing each using one shift intrinsic and a blend.
This change makes the code shorter and easier to read, so we can pull it
into the main descriptor processing loop instead of needing its own
function. This in turn makes the descriptor processing in the loop as a
whole slightly easier to read as it's more linear.
In terms of performance, in testing this change shows little effect, with
single-core perf tests showing a very slight improvement.

An analysis of the i40e code using Intel® VTune™ Amplifier 2016 showed
that the code was unexpectedly causing stalls due to "Loads blocked by
Store Forwards". This can occur when a load from memory has to wait
due to the prior store being to the same address, but being of a smaller
size i.e. the stored value cannot be directly returned to the loader.
[See ref: https://software.intel.com/en-us/node/544454]
These stalls are due to the way in which the data_len values are handled
in the driver. The lengths are extracted using vector operations, but those
16-bit lengths are then assigned using scalar operations i.e. 16-bit
stores.
These regular 16-bit stores actually have two effects in the code:
* they cause the "Loads blocked by Store Forwards" issues reported
* they also cause the previous loads in the RX function to actually be a
load followed by a store to an address on the stack, because the 16-bit
assignment can't be done to an xmm register.
By converting the 16-bit store operations into a sequence of SSE blend
operations, we can ensure that the descriptor loads only occur once, and
avoid both the additional stores and loads from the stack, as well as the
stalls due to the blocked loads.
