The structure of the striding RQ(MPRQ) buffer includes an array size
defined by the RTE_PKTMBUF_HEADROOM macro added in [1].
When RTE_PKTMBUF_HEADROOM is set to 0 in the compilation config file
the compilation with debug type failed:
"In file included from ../drivers/common/mlx5/mlx5_common.h:25,
from ../drivers/common/mlx5/linux/mlx5_nl.h:12,
from ../drivers/common/mlx5/linux/mlx5_nl.c:22:
../drivers/common/mlx5/mlx5_common_mr.h:96:10: error: ISO C forbids
zero-size array 'pad' [-Werror=pedantic]"
Actually, the array for the first stride headroom is not needed:
Each stride in the striding RQ buffer includes the headroom of the next
stride, so the headroom of the first stride should be allocated before
the starting point of the buffer posted to the HW(HW buffer).
The striding RQ buffer is used as an attached buffer to mbuf and have
shared information per stride.
The LRO support moved all the strides shared information to the top of
the buffer before the first stride headroom but didn't remove the old
memory of this headroom from the buffer.
Remove the old headroom memory from the striding RQ buffer.
