When forwarding traffic across a TDM network the ethernet header will
be replaced with a ML-PPP one thereby reducing the size of the packet.

Hi Alan,

This patch is straightforward now, but it has build failures, do you plan to send a v3 to fix them?

Essentially, you need to replace assert() calls from your code with RTE_ASSERT/RTE_VERIFY from rte_debug.h.

Also, I don't see the point in having the assert in grinder_credits_check(), as this is purely a check on packet length, not credits.  IMO we should have the assert in grinder_schedule() as the first instruction, before the call to grinder_credits_check(), as this is a sort of validating the inputs into the scheduling decision.

Thanks,
Cristian
