Optimized kni_allocate_mbufs and kni_free_mbufs by using mbuf bulk
functions. This can improve performance more than two times.

Signed-off-by: Sergey Vyazmitinov <s.vyazmiti...@brain4net.com>

v2:
* CSG fixes.
v3:
* Fixed issue with possible different mempools in buffer list.
* Fixed issue with wrong rte_pktmbuf_alloc_bulk function return value
processing in the kni_allocate_mbufs.
