  The thunderx PMD is sensitive to the layout of the mbuf on
the RX path. Add in some compile-time checks to make sure the mbuf layout
assumptions are valid, and to provide hints to anyone changing the mbuf
where things may need to be updated.

- As previously discussed*, add some compile time checks to the pmds to
help sanity-check their dependencies on the mbuf layout.

* http://dpdk.org/ml/archives/dev/2017-April/064988.html

- Targeted for v17.08
