[dpdk-dev] [RFC PATCH 06/14] mbuf: reorder fields by time-of-use

* Reorder the fields in the mbuf so that we have fields that are used together side-by-side in the structure. This means that we have a contiguous block of 8-bytes in the mbuf which are used to reset an mbuf of descriptor rearm. * Where needed add in a dummy fields to overwrite values 8 or 16 byt
