Document the new features and device arguments added by the DPAA patch
series:
- Offline (O/H) port device support (drv_oldev bus devarg)
- Rx/Tx taildrop threshold devargs (drv_rx_taildrop, drv_tx_taildrop)
- Fmcless Rx queue count devarg (drv_fmcless_rxq)
- Shared MAC kernel interface name devarg (drv_sh_if_name)
- DMA devargs to control the existing scatter-gather batching, data
validation and ERR050757 programming at runtime
(dpaa_dma_sg_disable, dpaa_dma_data_validation,
dpaa_dma_pci_read_disable)

Added ``rte_vlan_insert_tpid()`` to the net librar.
+* **Added NXP DPAA offline (O/H) port device support.**
+
+ Added support for the DPAA Offline/Host-command (O/H) port, allowing
+ a DPDK application to use an offline port for packet processing.
+ The feature is selected through the ``drv_oldev`` bus device argument.
+
+* **Added NXP DPAA Rx/Tx taildrop threshold device arguments.**
+
+ Added ``drv_rx_taildrop`` and ``drv_tx_taildrop`` device arguments
+ to configure per-port frame queue taildrop congestion thresholds
+ at device probe time.
+
+* **Added NXP DPAA fmcless Rx queue count device argument.**
+
+ Added ``drv_fmcless_rxq`` device argument to set the number of
+ Rx queues when running without FMC configuration.
+
+* **Added NXP DPAA shared MAC kernel interface name device argument.**
+
+ Added ``drv_sh_if_name`` device argument to provide the Linux kernel
+ interface name of a shared MAC interface when it differs from the
+ ``fmX-macY`` style name used by DPDK.
+
+* **Added NXP DPAA DMA device arguments for runtime configuration.**
+
+ Added device arguments to the DPAA QDMA driver to control existing
+ driver behaviour at runtime:
+ ``dpaa_dma_sg_disable`` submits each descriptor as an individual
+ single-entry transfer instead of the default scatter-gather batching,
+ ``dpaa_dma_data_validation`` enables the post-transfer data validation
+ helper for debugging, and, when the driver is built with
+ ``RTE_DMA_DPAA_ERRATA_ERR050757``, ``dpaa_dma_pci_read_disable`` skips
+ the ERR050757 source read-transaction programming.
