Replace the store-release by relaxed for the CAS success at the end of
pop. Release isn't needed, because there is not write to data that need
to be synchronized.
The only preceding write is when the length is decreased, but the length
CAS loop already ensures the right synchronization.
The situation to avoid is when a thread sees the old length but the new
list, that doesn't have enough items for pop to success.
But the CAS success on length before the pop loop ensures any core reads
and updates the latest length, preventing this situation.
The store-release is also used to make sure that the items are read
before the head is updated, in order to prevent a core in pop to read an
incorrect value because another core rewrites it with push.
But this isn't needed, because items are read only when removed from the
used list. Right after this, they are pushed to the free list, and the
store-release in push makes sure the items are read before they are
visible in the free list.

Fix cmpexchange usage of weak / strong.
The generated code is the same on x86 and ARM (there is no weak
cmpexchange), but the old usage was inconsistent.
For push and pop update size, weak is used because cmpexchange is inside
a loop.
For pop update root, strong is used even though cmpexchange is inside a
loop, because there may be a lot of operations to do in a loop iteration
(locate the new head).

Replace the arguments array by one argument.
All objects in the args array have the same values, so there is no need
to use an array, only one struct is enough.
The args object is a lot smaller, and the allocation can be replaced
with a global variable.
As a consequence of using a single argument, there is no need to use a
loop to launch the test on every core one by one. Replace it with
rte_eal_mp_remote_launch.
The allocation of obj_table isn't needed either, because MAX_BULK is
small. The allocation can instead be replaced with a static array.
