In 19.11 PMDs will still update the fields even when the offloads are not
enabled.
-* ethdev: New function ``rte_eth_dev_set_supported_ptypes`` will be added in
- 19.11.
- This will allow application to request PMD to set specific ptypes defined
- through ``rte_eth_dev_set_supported_ptypes`` in ``rte_mbuf::packet_type``.
- If application doesn't want any ptype information it can call
- ``rte_eth_dev_set_supported_ptypes(ethdev_id, RTE_PTYPE_UNKNOWN)`` and PMD
- will set ``rte_mbuf::packet_type`` to ``0``.
- If application doesn't call ``rte_eth_dev_set_supported_ptypes`` PMD can
- return ``rte_mbuf::packet_type`` with ``rte_eth_dev_get_supported_ptypes``.
- If application is interested only in L2/L3 layer, it can inform the PMD
- to update ``rte_mbuf::packet_type`` with L2/L3 ptype by calling
- ``rte_eth_dev_set_supported_ptypes(ethdev_id, RTE_PTYPE_L2_MASK | RTE_PTYPE_L3_MASK)``.
- This scheme will allow PMDs to avoid lookup to internal ptype table on Rx and
- thereby improve Rx performance if application wishes do so.

* cryptodev: support for using IV with all sizes is added, J0 still can
be used but only when IV length in following structs ``rte_crypto_auth_xform``,
``rte_crypto_aead_xform`` is set to zero. When IV length is greater or equal
