[dpdk-dev,2/2] mempool: fix unsafe tailq element removal

  Potentially user provided function could remove/free tailq elements.
Doing so within a TAILQ_FOREACH loop is not safe.

Use _SAFE versions of _FOREACH macros.

Not sure it is required to use the _SAFE() variant here.
The object or mem_chunk should be considered as const, because these
objects are not allocated/freed by the user but by the mempool functions.

I think this one is legitimate and we should have it for 16.07.
So only this hunk would be required, and the patch 1/2 may be dropped if
we remove the first 2 chunks.
