[dpdk-dev,v10,3/7] ethdev: add new fields to ethdev info struct
Commit Message
The new fields nb_rx_queues and nb_tx_queues are added to the
rte_eth_dev_info structure.
Changes to API rte_eth_dev_info_get() are done to update these new fields
to the rte_eth_dev_info object.
Release notes is updated with the changes.
The librte_pdump library needs to register Rx and Tx callbacks for all
the nb_rx_queues and nb_tx_queues, when application wants to capture the
packets on all the software configured number of Rx and Tx queues of the
device. So far there is no support to get nb_rx_queues and nb_tx_queues
information from the ethdev library. Hence these changes are introduced.

The ABI is changed, not the API.

Why duplicating this symbol in 16.07?
The ABI is broken anyway.
