Hi Herakliusz,

Since pkt->ol_flags might set some other bits except IND_ATTACHED_MBUF, how 
about set its value to original pkt->ol_flags?

Regards,
Dong

Subject: [PATCH v2] example/ipv4_multicast: fix app hanging when using clone

The ipv4_multicast sample application was dropping packets when using mbuf 
clone. When creating an L2 header and copying metadata from the source packet, 
the ol_flags were also copied along with all the other metadata. Because the 
cloned packet had IND_ATTACHED_MBUF flag set in its ol_flags, this caused the 
packets to never be freed when using rte_pktmbuf_free.
Since copying ol_flags from the cloned packet is not necessary in the first 
place, just don't do it.
