Sometimes git does not print the name of the function being changed
after @@. It happens especially after a goto label which is not indented.

In igb_uio, iomem is mapped, and both ioport and io mem are recorded
into uio framework (then into sysfs files), which is duplicated with
what Linux has already provided for user space, and makes the code
too complex.
For iomem, DPDK user space code never opens or reads files under
/sys/pci/bus/devices/xxxx:xx:xx.x/uio/uioY/maps/. Instead,
/sys/pci/bus/devices/xxxx:xx:xx.x/resourceY are used to map device
memory.
For ioport, non-x86 platforms cannot read from files under
/sys/pci/bus/devices/xxxx:xx:xx.x/uio/uioY/portio/ directly, because
non-x86 platforms need to map port region for access in user space,
see non-x86 version pci_uio_ioport_map(). x86 platforms can use the
the same way as uio_pci_generic.
This will remove iomem and ioport mapping in igb_uio kernel module,
and adjusts the iomem implementation in both igb_uio and
uio_pci_generic:
- for x86 platform, get ports info from /proc/ioports;
- for non-x86 platform, map and get ports info by pci_uio_ioport_map().
Note: this will affect those applications who are using files under
/sys/pci/bus/devices/xxxx:xx:xx.x/uio/uioY/maps/ and
/sys/pci/bus/devices/xxxx:xx:xx.x/uio/uioY/portio/.

Based on the packet type(IPv4 or IPv6), the nicvf HW aligns
L3 data to the 64bit memory address.
The alignment creates a hole in mbuf(between the
end of headroom and packet data start).
The new revision of the HW provides an option to disable
the L3 alignment feature and make mbuf layout looks
more like other NICs. For better application compatibility,
disabling l3 alignment feature on the hardware revisions it supports.

During device reset/stop, vmxnet3 releases all mbufs in tx and
rx cmd ring. For rx, we should go over all ring descriptors and
free using rte_pktmbuf_free_seg() instead of rte_pktmbuf_free()
as the metadata of the mbuf might not be properly initialized
(initialization after mempool creation is done in the rx routine)
and the mbuf should always be a single-segment one when populated.
For tx, we can use the existing way as mbuf, if any, will be a
valid one stashed in the eop.
