[dpdk-dev] [RFC 30/35] mempool: populate a mempool with anonymous memory

Now that we can populate a mempool with any virtual memory,
it is easier to introduce a function to populate a mempool
with memory coming from an anonymous mapping, as it's done
in test-pmd.

The next commit will replace test-pmd anonymous mapping by
this function.
