  The application may want to store private data along with the
rte_crypto_op that is transparent to the rte_cryptodev layer.
For e.g., If an eventdev based application is submitting a
crypto session-less operation and wants to indicate event
information required to construct a new event that will be
enqueued to eventdev after completion of the crypto
operation. This patch provides a mechanism for the application
to associate this information with the rte_crypto_op in
session-less mode.

Notes:
	V3:
	1. Added separate patch for session-less private data
	2. Added more information on offset
	V2:
	1. Removed enum rte_crypto_op_private_data_type
	2. Corrected formatting

I assume that if this offset is 0, it means that there is no private data?

Also, I would reword the Doxygen comment a bit (here is my suggestion, which looks a bit long, but I hope it is descriptive).

" Offset to indicate start of private data (if any). The offset is counted from the start of the rte_crypto_op structure.
The private data may be used by the application to store information which should remain untouched in the library/driver.
Note that an Initialization Vector (IV) for the operation may be placed at the end of the structure as well, so caution to avoid overwrites has to be taken."

Apart from the comments above, this overall looks good to me.
I would say you could submit a v1 with some implementation.
Could you also modify the Cryptodev section in the Programmer's Guide document, to reflect these changes?

Thanks,
Pablo
