Konstantin has correctly pointed out that the previously applied fix:
 b35d0d80f0a8 ("ixgbe: check mbuf refcnt when clearing a ring")
is not a proper fix for the reported issue at all.
Ref: http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.networking.dpdk.devel/21932

This patch set reverts the original fix, and applies a better fix for the
issue, as well as performing other cleanups in the code in question, to
try and avoid future issues.

Bruce Richardson (5):
  Revert "ixgbe: check mbuf refcnt when clearing a ring"
  ixgbe: fix comments on rx_queue fields
  ixgbe: fix bug on release of mbufs from queue
  ixgbe: rename tx queue release function for consistency
  ixgbe: remove awkward typecasts from ixgbe SSE PMD
