Memzone names are limited to 31 characters, and ring, mempool and
stack names lose the length of their prefixes on top of that.
A mempool name is limited to 25 characters, which leaves little room
for libraries such as rib and fib that derive names from the name
given by the application.

Increase RTE_MEMZONE_NAMESIZE to 64. The derived ring, mempool,
stack and RCU defer queue sizes follow.

Move name out of the first cache line of struct rte_ring and
struct rte_mempool so the larger name does not push datapath
fields into another cache line. For mempool this also brings
local_cache, cache_size and ops_index into the first cache line,
where previously they were in the second. struct rte_mempool
stays 192 bytes; struct rte_ring grows by one cache line.

    =======================================================
 
+* **Increased memzone maximum name size.**
+
+  ``RTE_MEMZONE_NAMESIZE`` was increased from 32 to 64,
+  and the derived ``RTE_RING_NAMESIZE``, ``RTE_MEMPOOL_NAMESIZE``,
+  ``RTE_STACK_NAMESIZE`` and ``RTE_RCU_QSBR_DQ_NAMESIZE`` grew accordingly.
+  This impacts the following structures:
+
+  * ``struct rte_memzone`` grew by 32 bytes.
+
+  * ``struct rte_ring`` grew by one cache line,
+    and ``name`` was moved after the size fields
+    to keep the datapath fields in the first cache line.
+
+  * ``struct rte_mempool`` is unchanged in size,
+    but ``name``, ``pool_config`` and ``mz`` were moved
+    after the fields used in the datapath.
+
+  * ``struct rte_stack`` grew by one cache line.
+
