One reserved byte in rte_crypto_op struct would be used to indicate
warnings and other information from the crypto/security operation. This
field will be used to communicate events such as soft expiry with IPsec
in lookaside mode.

 * security: The functions ``rte_security_set_pkt_metadata`` and
   ``rte_security_get_userdata`` will be made inline functions and additional
   flags will be added in structure ``rte_security_ctx`` in DPDK 21.11.

+* cryptodev: The structure ``rte_crypto_op`` would be updated to reduce
