Creation of a session mempool may fail in the case of a single lcore
and a low number of SA.

I am not able to understand the reason why the number need to be increased.
Could you please explain?

Sure. Starting ipsec-secgw with 4 configured SA with single lcore fails 
with:

CRYPTODEV: rte_cryptodev_sym_session_pool_create() line 1420: 
rte_cryptodev_sym_session_pool_create(name=sess_mp_0) failed, rte_errno=22

In case when there is only one lcore and number of configures SA less 
then (0.5 * CDEV_MP_CACHE_SZ) then creation of the mempool fails with 
EINVAL. This is because the number of requested items is less than 
(cache size * 1.5)

from rte_mempool_create_empty():

         /* asked cache too big */
         if (cache_size > RTE_MEMPOOL_CACHE_MAX_SIZE ||
             CALC_CACHE_FLUSHTHRESH(cache_size) > n) {
                 rte_errno = EINVAL;
                 return NULL;
         }

, where n is nb_sess and CALC_CACHE_FLUSHTHRESH(cache_size) is just (1.5 
* cache_size). This was mentioned in rte_mempool_create() documentation:
@param cache_size
...
  *   This argument must be lower or equal to
  *   RTE_MEMPOOL_CACHE_MAX_SIZE and n / 1.5.
...

Before https://patches.dpdk.org/patch/81245/ there was no such a problem 
due to multiplying nb_sess by 2.
