> V8 Changes:
> * Remove default mempool populate() routine changes.
> * Add kni app specific mempool create & free routines.
> * Add new mempool populate routine to allocate page-aligned memzones with
> page size to make sure all mempool objects reside on a page.
> * Update release notes and map files.
> 
> V7 Changes:
> * Removed previously proposed mempool flag and made those page boundary
> checks default in mempool populate() except for the objects size bigger than 
> the
> size of page.
> * Removed KNI example application related changes since pool related
> requirement is taken care in mempool lib.
> * All PCI dev related info is moved under rte_eal_iova_mode() == VA check.
> * Added wrapper functions in KNI module to hide IOVA checks and make address
> translation routines more readable.
> * Updated IOVA mode checks that enforcing IOVA=PA mode when IOVA=VA
> mode is enabled.
> 
> V6 Changes:
> * Added new mempool flag to ensure mbuf memory is not scattered across page
> boundaries.
> * Added KNI kernel module required PCI device information.
> * Modified KNI example application to create mempool with new mempool flag.
> 
> V5 changes:
> * Fixed build issue with 32b build
> 
> V4 changes:
> * Fixed build issues with older kernel versions
> * This approach will only work with kernel above 4.4.0
> 
> V3 Changes:
> * Add new approach to work kni with IOVA=VA mode using
> iommu_iova_to_phys API.
