Core support for using the Intel DPDK with Xen Dom0 - including EAL
changes and mempool changes. These changes encompass how memory mapping
is done, including support for initializing a memory pool inside an
already-allocated block of memory.
KNI sample app updated to use KNI close function when used with Xen.

These library changes provide a new Intel DPDK feature for communicating
with virtual machines using QEMU's IVSHMEM mechanism.
The feature works by providing a command line for QEMU to map several hugepages
into a single IVSHMEM device. For the guest to know what is inside any given IVSHMEM
device (and to distinguish between Intel(R) DPDK and non-Intel(R) DPDK IVSHMEM
devices), a metadata file is also mapped into the IVSHMEM segment. No work needs to
be done by the guest application to map IVSHMEM devices into memory; they are
automatically recognized by the Intel(R) DPDK Environment Abstraction Layer (EAL).
Changes in this patch:
* Changes to EAL to allow mapping of all hugepages in a memseg into a single file
* Changes to EAL to allow ivshmem devices to be transparently mapped in
the process running on the guest.
* New ivshmem library to create and manage metadata exported to guest VM's
* New ivshmem compilation targets
* Mempool and ring changes to allow export of structures to a VM and allow
a VM to attach to those structures.
* New autotests to unit tests this functionality.

For certain functionality, e.g. Xen Dom0 support, it is required that
we can guarantee that memzones for descriptor rings won't cross 2M
boundaries. So add new memzone reserve function where we can pass in a
boundary condition parameter.

GCC 4.8 was producing this error:
argument to ‘sizeof’ in ‘strncmp’ call is the same expression as the
second source; did you mean to provide an explicit length?

When a memory address must be read, for instance a [mapped] PCI register,
the read value is assigned to a local variable that is not used after,
as for instance:
x = *((uint8_t *) mem_addr);
Such instructions do not compile with gcc 4.6.
The fix consists in adding the "volatile" attribute to the accessed data type
and to not assign the read value:
*((volatile uint8_t *) mem_addr);
