  To: dev; +Cc: Qinglai Xiao

User application is advocated to set the newly introduced union field
mbuf->hash.usr as flow id, which is uint32_t.
With introduction of in_flight_bitmask, the whole 32 bits of tag can
be used.

Further more, this patch fixed the integer overflow when finding the
matched tags.

Note that currently librte_distributor supports up to 64 worker
threads. If more workers are needed, the size of in_flight_bitmask and
the algorithm of finding matched tag must be revised.

Hi,

this would probably be better as two patches rather than one. One patch to
add the hash.usr field, and then use it in the distributor. The change to
the distributor to add the bit mask to allow all bits of the tag to be used
should then go as a separate patch.

Regards,
/Bruce
