This patch refers to the ABI change proposed for
librte_cfgfile(rte_cfgfile.h). In order to allow
for longer names and values, the values of macro
CFG_NAME_LEN and CFG_VAL_LEN is increased.

'virtual' is a keyword and can't be used if the code is to compile with
C++ compilers.
If rte_devargs.h was included in C++ code, compilation with clang++
failed with an error. g++ did not fail, but only because of a bug
that treats it as an anonymous struct with a decl-specifier which it
ignores.
This simply renames the member to 'virt'.

For virtio-net pmd, the interrupt management thread must be created after
this driver has initialised so that iopl() has been properly called and
its effects are inherited by all eal children threads.
Before this change, changing link status on a virtio-net device would
trigger a segfault in the interrupt thread :

For x550 supports 2 new flow director modes, MAC VLAN and Cloud.
The MAC VLAN mode means the MAC and VLAN are monitored.
The Cloud mode is for VxLAN and NVGRE, and the tunnel type,
TNI/VNI, inner MAC and inner VLAN are monitored.
So, there're a few new lookup fields for these 2 new modes, like MAC,
tunnel type, TNI/VNI.
We have to change the ABI to support these new lookup fields.
