  Make number of buffers in a pool nb_mbuf_in_pool dependent on number
of ports, cores and crypto queues. Add command line option -s which
when used overrides dynamic calculation of number of buffers in a pool.

I think you forgot to take into account possible reassemble table:

Also it might be worth for better readability to put code for nb_bufs_in_pool calculation
in a separate  function (and add spaces between '*' and its' operands).
Apart from that - whole series LGTM.
