DPDK 16.07 introduced the support for mempool offload support.
rte_pktmbuf_pool_create is the recommended method for creating pktmbuf
pools. Buffer pools created with rte_mempool_create may not get offloaded
to the underlying offloaded mempools.

This patch, changes the rte_mempool_create to use helper wrapper
"rte_pktmbuf_pool_create" provided by dpdk, so that it can leverage
offloaded mempools.

branch-2.6 and master are different, so different patches are submitted.

I think you should remove rte_pktmbuf_init() in ovs_rte_pktmbuf_init() as it is already called in rte_pktmbuf_pool_create().

I agree with that optimization. Otherwise, LGTM for master branch.
