When the fast-free hint is provided to the driver we know that the mbufs have refcnt of 1 and are from the same mempool. Therefore, we can optimize a bit for this case by:
* resetting the necessary mbuf fields, ie. nb_seg and next pointer when we are accessing the mbuf on writing the descriptor. * on cleanup of buffers after transmit, we can just write those buffers straight to the mempool without accessing them.
