[PATCH 1/4] mbuf: clarify meta data needed for Outbound Inline

[Nithin Dabilpuram <ndabilpuram@marvell.com>]

Clarify mbuf meta data needed for Outbound Inline processing.
Application needs to provide mbuf.l3_len and L3 type in
mbuf.ol_flags so that like tunnel mode using mbuf.l2_len, transport mode
can make use of l3_len and l3_type to determine perform
proper transport mode IPsec processing.
