[Bug 1551752] [NEW] DPDK Testpmd failing with Xen specific gntalloc in non-Xen environments

[ChristianEhrhardt]

Public bug reported:

Enabling XEN support worked fine so far.
It was requested by a user and no complaints so far, also "our" consumption via OVS-DPDK continued to work so we considered it being a "no-impact" to keep it enabled.


Now it turned out that the testpmd tool seems to be only working in XEN environments when RTE_LIBRTE_PMD_XENVIRT is enabled.

We have to analyze it and consider fixing it somehow or even disabling
Xen again before Xenial release.
