C++ requires to use a scope operator to access an enum inside a struct.

The solution is to move the struct and related code out of the header file.

vhost: fix leak of fds and mmaps
The common vhost code only supported a single mmap per device. vhost-user
worked around this by saving the address/length/fd of each mmap after the end
of the rte_virtio_memory struct. This only works if the vhost-user code frees
dev->mem, since the common code is unaware of the extra info. The
VHOST_USER_RESET_OWNER message is one situation where the common code frees
dev->mem and leaks the fds and mappings. This happens every time I shut down a
VM.
The new code calls back into the implementation (vhost-user or vhost-cuse) to
clean up these resources.

Add guest offload setting in vhost lib.
Virtio 1.0 spec (5.1.6.4 Processing of Incoming Packets) says:
1. If the VIRTIO_NET_F_GUEST_CSUM feature was negotiated, the
VIRTIO_NET_HDR_F_NEEDS_CSUM bit in flags can be set: if so,
the packet checksum at offset csum_offset from csum_start
and any preceding checksums have been validated. The checksum
on the packet is incomplete and csum_start and csum_offset
indicate how to calculate it (see Packet Transmission point 1).
2. If the VIRTIO_NET_F_GUEST_TSO4, TSO6 or UFO options were
negotiated, then gso_type MAY be something other than
VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO_NONE, and gso_size field indicates the
desired MSS (see Packet Transmission point 2).
In order to support these features, the following changes are added,
1. Extend 'VHOST_SUPPORTED_FEATURES' macro to add the offload features negotiation.
2. Enqueue these offloads: convert some fields in mbuf to the fields in virtio_net_hdr.
There are more explanations for the implementation.
For VM2VM case, there is no need to do checksum, for we think the
data should be reliable enough, and setting VIRTIO_NET_HDR_F_NEEDS_CSUM
at RX side will let the TCP layer to bypass the checksum validation,
so that the RX side could receive the packet in the end.
In terms of us-vhost, at vhost RX side, the offload information is
inherited from mbuf, which is in turn inherited from TX side. If we
can still get those info at RX side, it means the packet is from
another VM at same host. So, it's safe to set the
VIRTIO_NET_HDR_F_NEEDS_CSUM, to skip checksum validation.

tools: support binding to built-in kernel modules
Currently dpdk_nic_bind.py detects Linux kernel modules via reading
/proc/modules. Built-in ones aren't listed there and therefore they are
not being found by the script.
Add support for checking built-in modules with parsing the sysfs files.
This commit obsoletes the /proc/modules parsing approach.

virtio: support specification 1.0
Modern (v1.0) virtio pci device defines several pci capabilities.
Each cap has a configure structure corresponding to it, and the
cap.bar and cap.offset fields tell us where to find it.
Firstly, we map the pci resources by rte_eal_pci_map_device().
We then could easily locate a cfg structure by:
cfg_addr = dev->mem_resources[cap.bar].addr + cap.offset;
Therefore, the entrance of enabling modern (v1.0) pci device support
is to iterate the pci capability lists, and to locate some configs
we care; and they are:
- common cfg
For generic virtio and virtqueue configuration, such as setting/getting
features, enabling a specific queue, and so on.
- nofity cfg
Combining with `queue_notify_off' from common cfg, we could use it to
notify a specific virt queue.
- device cfg
Where virtio_net_config structure is located.
- isr cfg
Where to read isr (interrupt status).
If any of above cap is not found, we fallback to the legacy virtio
handling.
If succeed, hw->vtpci_ops is assigned to modern_ops, where all
operations are implemented by reading/writing a (or few) specific
configuration space from above 4 cfg structures. And that's basically
how this patch works.
Besides those changes, virtio 1.0 introduces a new status field:
FEATURES_OK, which is set after features negotiation is done.
Last, set the VIRTIO_F_VERSION_1 feature flag.

vfio: support no-IOMMU mode
This commit is adding a generic mechanism to support multiple IOMMU
types. For now, it's only type 1 (x86 IOMMU) and no-IOMMU (a special
VFIO mode that doesn't use IOMMU at all), but it's easily extended
by adding necessary definitions to eal_vfio.h, and DMA mapping
functions to eal_pci_vfio.c.
Since type 1 IOMMU module is no longer necessary to have VFIO,
we fix the module check to check for vfio-pci instead. It's not
ideal and triggers VFIO checks more often (and thus produces more
error output, which was the reason behind the module check in the
first place), so we compensate for that by providing more verbose
logging, indicating whether VFIO initialization has succeeded or

ixgbe/base: fix Tx hang in CEE mode
Currently credit_refill and credit_max could be zero for a TC and that
is causing Tx hang for CEE mode configuration, so to fix that have at
min credit assigned to a TC and that is as what IEEE mode already does.

doc: remove DPDK from guide titles
In HTML and PDF guides, it is clear in the header that the doc
is related to the DPDK.
So "DPDK" is redundant and can be removed from FAQ and release notes
titles to improve consistency.
