[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v5] mbuf: allow dynamic flags to be used by secondary process

[Stephen Hemminger <stephen@networkplumber.org>]

The dynamic flag management is broken if rte_mbuf_dynflag_lookup()
is done in a secondary process because the local pointer to
the memzone is not ever initialized.

Fix it by using the same checks as dynfield_register().
I.e if shared memory zone has not been looked up already,
then discover it.
