How about making it more explicit with ETHER_CRC_LEN? E.g.
	uint8_t crc_size = ETHER_CRC_LEN * 
			   (dev->data->dev_conf.rxmode.hw_strip_crc == 0);

You might want to make the same change for this assert?

I think there's another bugs we didn't know. If scatter is required,
RTE_PKTMBUF_HEADROOM is also reserved per every chained mbufs. So, it looks like
mb_len should be "rte_pktmbuf_data_room_size(mp) - RTE_PKTMBUF_HEADROOM" when it
is declared in the beginning. Make sense?

rxq.sges_n is 2bits, which means the max value is 3. So, if sges_n is larger
than 3, it would just take the last 2bits and it will result in false error
below. As we can't use sizeof() for bit-fields, this should be changed like:
		
 		/* Check the maximum value of the bit-field. */
 		tmpl->rxq.sges_n = -1;
 		tmpl->rxq.sges_n = RTE_MIN(tmpl->rxq.sges_n, sges_n);

This may be unnecessary if we make right changes?
