[KJ] the depth can be calculated using the max_nb_queue_pairs in dev_info. By
stored this information in rte_cryptodev_data struct, we are no longer need to
modify every queue private crypto PMDs, and this pid info is not exposed to
userspace neither.

> - Documentation is missing on how this feature will be used.
[KJ] v4 updates release notes and commit message for usage of this feature.
> - Test cases?
[KJ]We have a standalone multi-process test case that I can submit but it needs
some rework so it probably cant be included in the next revision. I can submit
it anyway and we can do a revision of it later, after discussion. Ideally, the
test app should be integrate into l2fwd test app.
> - PMD implementation is key part for this feature to work.
[KJ] My understanding is that this design should not impact to any PMDs but
offers an alternative way for secondary process to configure the queue-pair.
Its up to primary process to call the IPC request register function, otherwise
no impact to any cryptodev multi-process functionalities.

[KJ] We would still like to get this feature into the release since we have a
customer already using a version of this patchset. We will work to address your
concerns/questions and resubmit.
