Chained mbufs hold data_len as the length of that particular mbuf and pkt_len as the full packet length including all the chained mbufs. It is not clear from the mbuf definition if pkt_len should be set for all the mbufs in a chain, but code there for handling mbufs suggests just the first mbuf requires to have pkt_len set.
NFP PMD was assuming pkt_len is set in all the chained mbufs and unit tests for gather dma were building mbufs with pkt_len always set. This patch gets rid of that assumption.
