In the Tx cleanup function, the reference count in mbufs to be
returned to the pool should to be decremented before they are
returned. Decrementing is not done by rte_mempool_put_bulk()
so it must be done separately using __rte_pktmbuf_prefree_seg().
If decrementing does not result in a 0 reference count the mbuf
is not returned to the pool and whatever has the last reference
is responsible for freeing.

Since reference counts are set to 0 when mbufs are reallocated from the
pool, and sending packets with reference count not equal to 1 is probably
an application error, this patch may not be critical. But a debug ASSERT
caught it and it would be nice to have it fixed in 16.07.
