For free buffer operation in i40e driver, it is unnecessary to store
'NULL' into txep.mbuf. This is because when putting mbuf into Tx queue,
tx_tail is the sentinel. And when doing tx_free, tx_next_dd is the
sentinel. In all processes, mbuf==NULL is not a condition in check.
Thus reset of mbuf is unnecessary and can be omitted.

Not sure, but at least found:

static void __rte_cold
ixgbe_tx_queue_release_mbufs(struct ixgbe_tx_queue *txq)
{
	unsigned i;

	if (txq->sw_ring != NULL) {

			if (txq->sw_ring[i].mbuf != NULL) {  <---------------------------- ?

				txq->sw_ring[i].mbuf = NULL;

Thanks for your remind. I check the function"xx_tx_queue_release_mbufs" and "xx_tx_done_cleanup_full" which
have the check for 'sw_ring->buf == NULL'.  I find the scheme of free buffers in scalar path and vector path are different:
For scalar, it should support jumbo frame, so it cannot use 'tx_next_dd' to find free buffer index
For vector, free a packet means free a buffer, just use tx_next_dd can find the start index of free buffer.
At last, store operation of NULL for freed buffer is necessary for scalar path. And I will just keep the vector path path.

v2: remove the change for scalar path due to scalar path needs to check
whether the mbuf is 'NULL' to release and clean up (Haiyue)

v3: add comments to remind reset mbuf is unnecessary here (Qi Zhang)
