   the pipeline parameter will be added, the packets mask parameter will be
   either removed (for input port action handler) or made input-only.

+* librte_mempool: The rte_mempool struct will be changed in 16.07 to
+  facilitate the new external mempool manager functionality.
+  The ring element will be replaced with a more generic 'pool' opaque pointer
+  to allow new mempool handlers to use their own user-defined mempool
