mempool: fix mempool virt populate with small chunks
To populate a mempool with a virtual area, the mempool code calls
rte_mempool_populate_iova() for each iova-contiguous area. It happens
(rarely) that this area is too small to store one object. In this case,
rte_mempool_populate_iova() returns an error, which is forwarded by
rte_mempool_populate_virt().
This case should not throw an error in
rte_mempool_populate_virt(). Instead, the area that is too small should
just be ignored.
To fix this issue, change the return value of
rte_mempool_populate_iova() to -ENOBUFS when no object can be populated,
so it can be ignored by the caller. As this would be an API change, add
a compat wrapper to keep the current API unchanged. The wrapper will be
removed for 20.11.
