[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] app/testpmd: add GPU memory option in iofwd engine

[<eagostini@nvidia.com>]

From: eagostini <eagostini@nvidia.com>

This patch introduces GPU memory in testpmd through the gpudev library.
Testpmd can be used for network benchmarks when using GPU memory
instead of regular CPU memory to send and receive packets.
This option is currently limited to iofwd engine.
