[Cao, Waterman]

Tested-by: Waterman Cao <waterman.cao at intel.com>

This patch includes 4 files, and has been tested by Intel.
Please see test environment information as the following:
Fedora 20 x86_64, Linux Kernel 3.11.10-301, GCC 4.8.2  Intel Xeon CPU E5-2680 v2 @ 2.80GHz
NIC: Intel Niantic 82599, Intel i350, Intel 82580 and Intel 82576
We verified ethertype filter, 2-tuple filter, 5-tuple filter, flex filter and SYN filter with above NICs.
 Total cases        Passed               Failed   
     27               25                   2
Failures were caused by HW issues, no impact on functionality.
Please see example: how to distribute specific packet to assigned queue.
  Firstly, launch testpmd firstly, then run the following command:
  ---add syn filter ---
  testpmd> add_syn_filter (port_id) priority (high|low) queue (queue_id)
  ---get syn filter info ---
  testpmd> get_syn_filter (port_id)
  ---remove syn filter ---
  testpmd> remove_syn_filter (port_id)
