Applied for version 1.7.0.

Some things could be cleaned up later, especially i40e specific flags in ge=
neric API must be removed. Please work on a patch for next release.

Thanks for the hard work

Hi Thomas

Thank you greatly to merge those code!

Btw, what do you mean the i40e specific flags in generic API? Did you mean =
the new flags defined in rte_mbuf.h?
Yes, we are working on some bug fixes and enhancements which might need to =
be added in the next release. Hopefully we can see them soon.

Regards,
Helin
