> The rte_mempool structure is changed, which will cause an ABI change
> for this structure.
> 
> Allow mempool cache support to be dynamic depending on if the
> mempool being created needs cache support. Saves about 1.5M of
> memory used by the rte_mempool structure. Performance does not seem
> to be effected running l3fwd and the test_mempool execution passed.
> 
> Allocating small mempools which do not require cache can consume
> larges amounts of memory if you have a number of these mempools.
