> The patch changes the way of reserving memory in Dom0 driver. It will
> reserve memory at installing rte_dom0_mm.ko kernel module instead of
> requesting memory dynamically during DPDK application startup. Meanwhile,
> now driver requests memory size of 4M once first, if it failed, and request
> memory size of 2M once. The main reasons we do these changes as follows:
> 
> First, to reduce the impact of inceasing in memory fragment after system run
> a long time. Second, to reduce number of memory segment
