Same comment than other patches about union vs #if.

I guess this should be in the previous patch instead, since kni uses
m->buf_iova

After this change, the documentation of RTE_IOVA_AS_VA can be enhanced to
explain that it also moves the next pointer to the first cache line, possibly
increasing the performance.
