8a946db34a net/thunderx: disable L3 alignment padding
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.

d1d861efef net/thunderx: fix memory alloc issue when changing ring size
Allocate maximum supported hardware ring hardware descriptors
memory on the first rte_eth_dma_zone_reserve call in order to
get sufficient hardware ring buffer space on subsequent queue
setup request with different queue size.
