I have a updated pktgen with jumbo support. You need to pass the -j option to 
get jumbo frame support in pktgen. I have not done a lot of testing on this 
version. If you have time please pull the pktgen repo and switch over to the 
‘dev’ branch and see if this work for you. I did not use your changes here and 
did it my way :-)

I did not change DPDK, as it seemed like it did not matter if 
RTE_MBUF_DEFAULT_DATAROOM changed. I am sure someplace may care if they used 
that define.
