69736db1d8 eal: introduce I/O device memory read/write operations
This commit introduces 8-bit, 16-bit, 32bit, 64bit I/O device
memory read/write operations along with the relaxed versions.

The weakly-ordered machine like ARM needs additional I/O barrier for
device memory read/write access over PCI bus.
By introducing the eal abstraction for I/O device memory read/write access,
The drivers can access I/O device memory in architecture agnostic manner.

The relaxed version does not have additional I/O memory barrier, useful in
accessing the device registers of integrated controllers which
implicitly strongly ordered with respect to memory access.

b1a4b4cbc0 ethdev: introduce generic flow API
This new API supersedes all the legacy filter types described in
rte_eth_ctrl.h. It is slightly higher level and as a result relies more on
PMDs to process and validate flow rules.

Benefits:

- A unified API is easier to program for, applications do not have to be
  written for a specific filter type which may or may not be supported by
  the underlying device.

- The behavior of a flow rule is the same regardless of the underlying
  device, applications do not need to be aware of hardware quirks.

- Extensible by design, API/ABI breakage should rarely occur if at all.

- Documentation is self-standing, no need to look up elsewhere.

Existing filter types will be deprecated and removed in the near future.

65df6d069d config: remove insecure warnings
There was an option CONFIG_RTE_INSECURE_FUNCTION_WARNING (disabled by
default), which prevents from using some libc functions:
sprintf, snprintf, vsnprintf, strcpy, strncpy, strcat, strncat, sscanf,
strtok, strsep and strlen.

It's all about using them at the right place with the right precautions.
However, it is neither really possible nor a good advice to disable them.

c711ccb309 ivshmem: remove library and its EAL integration
Following discussions on the mailing list [1] and since nobody stood up to
implement the necessary cleanups, here is the ivshmem integration removal.

There is not much to say about this patch, a lot of code is being removed.
The default configuration file for packet_ordering example is replaced with
the "native" x86 file.
The only tricky part is in eal_memory with the memseg index stuff.

More cleanups can be done after this but will come in subsequent patchsets.

78c8709b5d mbuf_offload: introduce library to attach offloads to mbuf
This library add support for adding a chain of offload operations to a
mbuf. It contains the definition of the rte_mbuf_offload structure as
well as helper functions for attaching  offloads to mbufs and a mempool
management functions.

This initial implementation supports attaching multiple offload
operations to a single mbuf, but only a single offload operation of a
specific type can be attach to that mbuf.

d11b0f30df cryptodev: introduce API and framework for crypto devices
This patch contains the initial proposed APIs and device framework for
integrating crypto packet processing into DPDK.

features include:
 - Crypto device configuration / management APIs
 - Definitions of supported cipher algorithms and operations.
 - Definitions of supported hash/authentication algorithms and
   operations.
 - Crypto session management APIs
 - Crypto operation data structures and APIs allocation of crypto
   operation structure used to specify the crypto operations to
   be performed  on a particular mbuf.
 - Extension of mbuf to contain crypto operation data pointer and
   extra flags.
 - Burst enqueue / dequeue APIs for processing of crypto operations.
