I suggest we use uint32_t for rte_red_scaling and rte_red_max_threshold, even
though their values can fit into uint8_t and uint16_t respectively.

Is there a reason why we cannot simply reset the scaling here?

This does not look right to me. I think you want to compute the log2 of
max_red_queue_length here, but your result (count) is bigger by 1 than it
should be, right?
When max_red_queue_length = RTE_RED_DEFAULT_QUEUE_LENGTH = 1024, the result
should be: count = RTE_RED_SCALING = 10, not 11.
I suggest you use rte_bsf32() function for this purpose.

Why not simply: rte_red_scaling = count?

You need to put the correct DPDK release number here.
You also need to do more work to make sure the share library support is not
broken:
-need to increase LIBABIVER in Makefile
-need to update the library .so number in release notes
-need to check that build does not fail for shared libraries
(You can use this patch as example: https://dpdk.org/dev/patchwork/patch/33109/
)

The RED test code fails to link, please fix:
