From: Olivier Matz <olivier.m...@6wind.com>
The API comment of rte_eth_tx_descriptor_status() was incorrect. The reference
descriptor (when offset = 0) is not where the next packet will be sent, but
where the latest packet has been enqueued.
Fixes: 52f5cdd2e897 ("ethdev: add descriptor status API")
