[dpdk-stable] [PATCH 18.11] net/mlx5: fix vectorized Rx burst termination

From: Alexander Kozyrev <akozyrev at mellanox.com>

[ upstream commit c9cc554ba423641d3515671269c5648dab3bb9ad ]

Maximum burst size of Vectorized Rx burst routine is set to
MLX5_VPMD_RX_MAX_BURST(64). This limits the performance of any
application that would like to gather more than 64 packets from
the single Rx burst for batch processing (i.e. VPP).

The situation gets worse with a mix of zipped and unzipped CQEs.
They are processed separately and the Rx burst function returns
small number of packets every call.

Repeat the cycle of gathering packets from the vectorized Rx routine
until a requested number of packets are collected or there are no
more CQEs left to process.

Fixes: 6cb559d67b83 ("net/mlx5: add vectorized Rx/Tx burst for x86")
