[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v4 1/9] mempool: silence -Wcast-align on pointer arithmetic

Translating from a mempool object to the mempool pointer does not break
alignment constraints. However, the compiler is unaware of this fact and
complains on -Wcast-align. This patch modifies the code to use RTE_PTR_SUB(),
thereby silencing the compiler by casting through (void *).
