I have chased the -95 into the ib_uverbs modules,  the error is returned
from uverbs_request_finish(), called from
ib_uverbs_ex_create_rwq_ind_table().

If I understand,  the purpose of uverbs_request_finish() is to verify
that the unused portion of some part of  buffer passed in from userspace
is filled with NULLs.  The error indicates its not.  If I remove the
call to uverbs_request_finish() testpmd starts up fine,  but I cant say
its functioning beyond that.

I am thinking some incompatibility between libibverbs and the ib_uverbs.
There have been recent changes with this kernel interface that may be
new for the 5.0 kernel.   I am trying to correlate the user space
structures with the kernel, but I am struggling at the moment.

Thank you for for testing on x86, I agree its time for me to reach out
to Mellanox.
