> On receive side, the burst size now floor aligns to RTE_IXGBE_DESCS_PER_LOOP power of 2.
> According to this rule, the burst size less than 4 still won't receive anything.
> (Before this change, the burst size less than 32 can't receive anything.)
> _recv_*_pkts_vec returns no more than 32(RTE_IXGBE_RXQ_REARM_THRESH) packets.
>
> On transmit side, the max burst size no longer bind with a constant, however it still
> require to check the cross tx_rs_thresh violation.
>
> There's no obvious performance drop found on both recv_pkts_vec
> and recv_scattered_pkts_vec on burst size 32.
