  The following log message may appear after a slave is idle(or nearly
idle)
for a few minutes:"PMD: Failed to allocate LACP packet from pool".
And bond mode 4 negotiation may fail.

Problem: All mbufs from a slave' private pool(used exclusively for
transmitting LACPDUs)
have been allocated and are still sitting in the device's tx descriptor
ring and
other cores' mempool caches.

Solution: Ensure that each slave'tx (LACPDU) mempool owns more than
n-tx-queues * n-tx-descriptor + fwd_core_num *
per-core-mmempool-flush-threshold mbufs.

Note that the LACP tx machine fuction is the only code that allocates
from a slave's private pool. It runs in the context of the interrupt
thread, and thus it has no mempool cache of its own.
