will be deprecated and subsequently removed in DPDK 24.11 release.
Before this, the new port library API (functions rte_swx_port_*)
will gradually transition from experimental to stable status.

* vhost: The function ``rte_vhost_crypto_create`` will accept a new parameter
to specify rte_mempool for asymmetric crypto session. The function
``rte_vhost_crypto_finalize_requests`` will accept two new parameters,
where the first one is to specify vhost device id and other one is to specify
the virtio queue index. These two modifications are required to support
asymmetric crypto operation in vhost crypto and will break ABI.
