Thank you for working to improve OVS support for DPDK.
This is a very simple patch. Can you explain the chain of authorship?

I don't see any value in the two casts to uint16_t above. They convert
their operands to uint16_t, but this will also happen just as well
without the casts since the destination has type uint16_t. Open vSwitch
style omits needless casts.
Also, I think that the above can be written more simply as:
b->mbuf.data_len = MIN(v, b->mbuf.buf_len - b->mbuf.data_off);
