[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 01/15] mbuf: add definitions of unified packet types

[Helin Zhang <helin.zhang@intel.com>]

As there are only 6 bit flags in ol_flags for indicating packet types,
which is not enough to describe all the possible packet types hardware
can recognize. For example, i40e hardware can recognize more than 150
packet types. Unified packet type is composed of tunnel type, L3 type,
L4 type and inner L3 type fields, and can be stored in mbuf field of
'packet_type' which is modified from 16 bits to 32 bits in mbuf structure.
Accordingly, the structure of 'rte_kni_mbuf' needs to be modifed as well.

v2 changes:
* Enlarged the packet_type field from 16 bits to 32 bits.
* Redefined the packet type sub-fields.
* Updated the 'struct rte_kni_mbuf' for KNI according to the mbuf changes.
