If an application issues rte_event_enqueue_new_burst() or
rte_event_enqueue_forward_burst() call with a burst of events longer
than the configured max enqueue burst size, DSW allocates credits not
only for events actually enqueued, but for the complete burst. If this
process is repeated, enough credits will have leaked to cause the
event device to backpressure (i.e. disallow) any new enqueue
operations.
In addition, the port-level enqueue xstats will log the wrong number
of events enqueued for oversized enqueues.
This patch makes DSW gracefully handle oversized enqueue bursts.
