[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v4 1/7] ethdev: allocate max space for internal queue array

[Konstantin Ananyev <konstantin.ananyev@intel.com>]

At queue configure stage always allocate space for maximum possible
number (RTE_MAX_QUEUES_PER_PORT) of queue pointers.
That will allow 'fast' inline functions (eth_rx_burst, etc.) to refer
pointer to internal queue data without extra checking of current number
of configured queues.
That would help in future to hide rte_eth_dev and related structures.
