[PATCH v8 0/4] ethdev: support mulitiple mbuf pools per Rx queue

[Andrew Rybchenko <andrew.rybchenko@oktetlabs.ru>]

I'm not sure in testpmd patch. Review would be useful and may be we
should postpone it to rc2.

v8:
 - Process review notes
v7:
 - Drop RTE_ETH_RX_OFFLOAD_MUL_MEMPOOL offload which seems to be
   unnecessary. Positive max_rx_mempools in dev_info is sufficient to
   indicate that the capability is support and positive number of
   mempools in Rx configuration is sufficient to request it.
 - Add helper patch to factor out Rx mempool check to be shared
   for single mempool, buffer split and multiple mempools case.
 - Refine check for a way to provide Rx buffers to be one and only one.
   Either single mempool, or buffer split, or multi mempool.
 - Drop feature advertisement in net/cnxk patch since there is no
   such feature defined yet. I have no strong opinion if a new feature
   is required or not.
v6:
 - Updated release notes, release_22_11.rst.
v5:
 - Declared memory pools as struct rte_mempool **rx_mempools rather than
   as struct rte_mempool *mp.
 - Added the feature in release notes.
 - Updated conditions and strings as per review comments.
v4:
 - Renamed Offload capability name from RTE_ETH_RX_OFFLOAD_BUFFER_SORT
   to RTE_ETH_RX_OFFLOAD_MUL_MEMPOOL.
 - In struct rte_eth_rxconf, defined new pointer, which holds array of
   type struct rte_eth_rx_mempool(memory pools). This array is used
   by PMD to program multiple mempools.
v3:
 - Implemented Pool Sort capability as new Rx offload capability,
   RTE_ETH_RX_OFFLOAD_BUFFER_SORT.
v2:
 - Along with spec changes, uploading testpmd and driver changes.
