Current:
typedef uint16_t (*eth_rx_burst_t)(void *rxq,
struct rte_mbuf **rx_pkts,
uint16_t nb_pkts);

Good idea, if it can be done without a performance cost.
The X64 calling convention allows up to 4 parameters passed as registers, so
the added parameter should not be a problem.
Another thing:
I just noticed that struct rte_eth_dev_data has "void **rx_queues;" (and
similarly for tx_queues).
That should be "void *rx_queues[RTE_MAX_QUEUES_PER_PORT];", like in all the
other ethdev structures.
The same structure even has "uint8_t rx_queue_state[RTE_MAX_QUEUES_PER_PORT];",
so it's following two different conventions.
