The function rte_snprintf serves no useful purpose. It is the
same as snprintf() for all valid inputs. Deprecate it and
replace all uses in current code.
Leave the tests for the deprecated function in place.

Intel PMDs are built on top of the base drivers which are provided by Intel
and shouldn't be modified to allow easy batch upgrade from Intel.
The base driver is a "shared code" between many projects. But in DPDK,
the "base driver" naming makes more sense.

- i40e RSS flags have been added (and enlarged to 64-bit)
- A new configuration of 'uint8_t rss_key_len' has been added in
'struct rte_eth_rss_conf' to support different length of RSS keys.
- In each PMD, only the supported flags are masked.

This commit removes trailing whitespace from lines in files. Almost all
files are affected, as the BSD license copyright header had trailing
whitespace on 4 lines in it [hence the number of files reporting 8 lines
changed in the diffstat].

Convert the vmxnet3 pmd driver to use the PMD_REGISTER_DRIVER macro.
This means that the test applications now have no reference to the vmxnet3 library
when building DSO's and must specify its use on the command line with the -d
option. Static linking will still initalize the driver automatically.

In order to distinguish clearly this implementation from the extension
vmxnet3-usermap, it is renamed to reflect its usage of uio framework.

Since commit 10ed994 (pci: use igb_uio mapping only when needed),
the flag RTE_PCI_DRV_NEED_IGB_UIO must be set even if RTE_EAL_UNBIND_PORTS
is disabled.
It was not the case for virtio_uio and vmxnet3_uio so the uio resources were
not mapped when RTE_EAL_UNBIND_PORTS was not defined.
Specifically, pci_uio_map_resource() was not called so
pci_dev->mem_resource was not mapped.

Poll Mode Driver for Paravirtual VMXNET3 NIC.
As a PMD, the VMXNET3 driver provides the packet reception and transmission
callbacks, vmxnet3_recv_pkts and vmxnet3_xmit_pkts. It does not support
scattered packet reception as part of vmxnet3_recv_pkts and
vmxnet3_xmit_pkts. Also, it does not support scattered packet reception as part of
the device operations supported.
The VMXNET3 PMD handles all the packet buffer memory allocation and resides in
guest address space and it is solely responsible to free that memory when not needed.
The packet buffers and features to be supported are made available to hypervisor via
VMXNET3 PCI configuration space BARs. During RX/TX, the packet buffers are
exchanged by their GPAs, and the hypervisor loads the buffers with packets in the RX
case and sends packets to vSwitch in the TX case.
The VMXNET3 PMD is compiled with vmxnet3 device headers. The interface is similar
to that of the other PMDs available in the Intel(R) DPDK API. The driver pre-allocates the
packet buffers and loads the command ring descriptors in advance. The hypervisor fills
those packet buffers on packet arrival and write completion ring descriptors, which are
eventually pulled by the PMD. After reception, the Intel(R) DPDK application frees the
descriptors and loads new packet buffers for the coming packets. The interrupts are
disabled and there is no notification required. This keeps performance up on the RX
side, even though the device provides a notification feature.
In the transmit routine, the Intel(R) DPDK application fills packet buffer pointers in the
descriptors of the command ring and notifies the hypervisor. In response the hypervisor
takes packets and passes them to the vSwitch. It writes into the completion descriptors
ring. The rings are read by the PMD in the next transmit routine call and the buffers
and descriptors are freed from memory.
