This patchset enables DPDK ports to support Jumbo frames
up to, and including 13K in size. Jumbo frame support is implemented
by increasing the amount of data that each mbuf can encompass, thus
allowing each mbuf segment to accomodate a single jumbo frame.
The series additionally cleans up mbuf initialization, which previously
relied on hardcoded values.
v5: Squash NEWS and INSTALL.DPDK.md patches into Jumbo Frame patch
Minor rework
v4: Split mbuf initialization, NEWS, and INSTALL.DPDK.md into separate
patches.
