This patch fixes this issue.

There should be a 'Fixes:' tag and assuming you want this patch backported to 
LTS, 'Cc: sta...@dpdk.org' too.


It can't be, because fix relies on new APIs added in this release (patch 1/2).


ok, makes sense, thanks. Do you think it worth adding a Bz for it and listing 
it as a known issue in 21.11.1?


Was discussing with Xialong, it is in the gray area that if this is a fix
or new feature.

It is not the case that initial implementation says that multi segment
mbufs are supported, in that case this is not a fix but enabling multi
segment support.

So perhaps better to update commit log in this way to prevent confusion
for the fixing and fix tag..
