Some application use rte_mbuf_raw_alloc() function to improve performance by not resetting mbuf's fields to their default state. This can be however problematic for mbuf consumers that need some headroom, meaning that data_off field gets decremented after allocation. When the mbuf is re-used afterwards, there might not be enough room for the consumer to prepend anything, if the data_off field is not reset to its default value. This patch adds a new rte_pktmbuf_reset_headroom() function that applications can call to reset the data_off field. This patch also replaces current data_off affectations in the mbuf lib with a call to this function.
