49e29ac2cb mbuf: decrease reference counter when detaching
The rte_pktmbuf_detach() function should decrease refcnt on a direct
buffer as stated in doc/guides/prog_guide/mbuf_lib.rst:
"whenever the indirect buffer is detached, the reference counter on the
direct buffer is decremented."

7621d6a8d0 eal: add and use unaligned integer types
On machines that are strict on pointer alignment, current code breaks
on GCC's -Wcast-align checks on casts from narrower to wider types.
This patch introduces new unaligned_uint(16|32|64)_t types, which
correctly retain alignment in such cases.  Strict alignment
architectures will need to define CONFIG_RTE_ARCH_STRICT_ALIGN in
order to effect these new types.

f867492346 mbuf: split mbuf across two cache lines.
This change splits the mbuf in two to move the pool and next pointers to
the second cache line. This frees up 16 bytes in first cache line.

The reason for this change is that we believe that there is no possible
way that we can ever fit all the fields we need to fit into a 64-byte
mbuf, and so we need to start looking at a 128-byte mbuf instead. Examples
of new fields that need to fit in, include -
* 32-bits more for filter information for support for the new filters in
  the i40e driver (and possibly other future drivers)
* an additional 2-4 bytes for storing info on a second vlan tag to allow
  drivers to support double Vlan/QinQ
* 4-bytes for storing a sequence number to enable out of order packet
  processing and subsequent packet reordering
as well as potentially a number of other fields or splitting out fields
that are superimposed over each other right now, e.g. for the qos scheduler.
We also want to allow space for use by other non-Intel NIC drivers that may
be open-sourced to dpdk.org in the future too, where they support fields
and offloads that currently supported hardware doesn't.

If we accept the fact of a 2-cache-line mbuf, then the issue becomes
how to rework things so that we spread our fields over the two
cache lines while causing the lowest slow-down possible. The general
approach that we are looking to take is to focus the first cache
line on fields that are updated on RX , so that receive only deals
with one cache line. The second cache line can be used for application
data and information that will only be used on the TX leg. This would
allow us to work on the first cache line in RX as now, and have the
second cache line being prefetched in the background so that it is
available when necessary. Hardware prefetches should help us out
here. We also may move rarely used, or slow-path RX fields e.g. such
as those for chained mbufs with jumbo frames, to the second
cache line, depending upon the performance impact and bytes savings
achieved.

08b563ffb1 mbuf: replace data pointer by an offset
The mbuf structure already contains a pointer to the beginning of the
buffer (m->buf_addr). It is not needed to use 8 bytes again to store
another pointer to the beginning of the data.

Using a 16 bits unsigned integer is enough as we know that a mbuf is
never longer than 64KB. We gain 6 bytes in the structure thanks to
this modification.

* Updated to apply to latest on mainline.
* Disabled vector PMD in config as it relies heavily on the mbuf layout

ea672a8b16 mbuf: remove the rte_pktmbuf structure
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

9aaccf1abd mbuf: remove rte_ctrlmbuf
The initial role of rte_ctrlmbuf is to carry generic messages (data
pointer + data length) but it's not used by the DPDK or it applications.
Keeping it implies:
  - loosing 1 byte in the rte_mbuf structure
  - having some dead code rte_mbuf.[ch]

This patch removes this feature. Thanks to it, it is now possible to
simplify the rte_mbuf structure by merging the rte_pktmbuf structure
in it. This is done in next commit.

* Updated patch to HEAD.
* Modified patch to retain the old function names for ctrl mbufs as
  macros. This helps with app compatibility, and allows the concept
  of a control mbuf to be reintroduced via a single-bit flag in
  a future change.
* Updated the packet framework ip_pipeline example application to
  work following this change.

62814bc2e9 mbuf: rename RTE_MBUF_SCATTER_GATHER into RTE_MBUF_REFCNT
It seems that RTE_MBUF_SCATTER_GATHER is not the proper name for the
feature it provides. "Scatter gather" means that data is stored using
several buffers. RTE_MBUF_REFCNT seems to be a better name for that
feature as it provides a reference counter for mbufs.

The macro RTE_MBUF_SCATTER_GATHER is poisoned to ensure this
modification is seen by drivers or applications using it.
