A new parameter is planned to be added in 17.05 release in
rte_cryptodev_info.sym - max_nb_sessions_per_qp.
This will allow applications to know the maximum number of session
which can be attached to queue_pairs of device.

I made a vhost ABI/API refactoring at v16.04, meant to avoid such issue
forever. Well, apparently, I lied.
People are looking for more vhost-user options now days, other than
vhost-user net only. For example, SPDK (Storage Performance Development
Kit) are looking for chance of vhost-user SCSI and vhost-user block.
Apparently, they also need a vhost-user backend, while DPDK already
has a (mature enough) backend, they don't want to implement it again
from scratch. They want to leverage the one DPDK provides.
However, the last refactoring hasn't done that right, at least it's
not friendly for extending vhost-user to add more devices support.
For example, different virtio devices has its own feature set, while
APIs like rte_vhost_feature_disable(feature_mask) have no option to
tell the device type. Thus, a more proper API should look like:
rte_vhost_feature_disable(device_type, feature_mask);
Besides that, few public files and structures should be renamed, to
not let it bind to virtio-net. Specifically, they are:
- virtio_net_device_ops --> vhost_device_ops
- rte_virtio_net.h --> rte_vhost.h

L2fwd-crypto app was padding an incoming buffer,
to be aligned with the algorithm block size, in all cases.
This was not the right approach, as padding is only necessary
when using block cipher algorithms, such as AES-CBC.
In case of using a stream cipher algorithm, such as SNOW3G UEA2,
there is no need to include padding and increase the buffer size.

When ciphering and authenticating in the same operation
(cipher-then-auth or auth-then-cipher),
the cipher key and authentication key were set with the same
key, in SNOW3G, KASUMI and ZUC PMDs.
They were using the key of the first transform structure,
instead of using the keys of the two different transform
structures.
This is not a big issue, since usually, the same key is
used for ciphering and authentication, but keys may be different.
