[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] examples: fix ip_reassembly not work with some NICs

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] examples: fix ip_reassembly not work with some NICs

[Yong Liu]

Some network device drivers like Fortville may not fill packet type by
default. Changed the method for detecting packet type from mbuf packet
type to ethernet header MAC type will make sure this example compatible
with all NICs.
