The pool initialization is not completed yet (private structure of mbuf pool is
not copied yet, so in this point  rte_pktmbuf_data_room_size() is unable to 
fetch
the valid data room size. Beside this,  rte_pktmbuf_data_room_size() returns the
valid value for the mbuf with pinned external buffers after pool initialization 
is done.

With best regards, Slava
