Typically when the PMD issues a RX command to DPAA2 hardware,

This patch adds support to issue another pull request to hardware
in another memory location, before we start processing the output
of the first request. This help in controlling the cpu cycles
wasted during the wait for the hardware to write the descriptors.
During hw debugging, it may be desired to keep the original
mode, so the original mode is also preserved and can be controlled
with an env flag.

Instead of getting configuration option from environment variable, can
you please make it argument to the driver?
This will be more consistent to the DPDK usage.
I guess you are talking about the devargs. That code is still not
cleaned up for non-pci devices.
In any case, we will work on that cleanup.
