It seems that RTE_MBUF_SCATTER_GATHER is not the proper name for the
feature it provides. "Scatter gather" means that data is stored using
several buffers. RTE_MBUF_REFCNT seems to be a better name for that
feature as it provides a reference counter for mbufs.

The macro RTE_MBUF_SCATTER_GATHER is poisoned to ensure this
modification is seen by drivers or applications using it.

After applying this first patch, I still get references to
"scatter gather":

$ git grep RTE_MBUF_SCATTER_GATHER
examples/Makefile:DIRS-$(CONFIG_RTE_MBUF_SCATTER_GATHER) += ip_fragmentation
examples/Makefile:DIRS-$(CONFIG_RTE_MBUF_SCATTER_GATHER) += ipv4_multicast
examples/ip_fragmentation/Makefile:ifneq 
($(CONFIG_RTE_MBUF_SCATTER_GATHER),y)
examples/ip_fragmentation/Makefile:$(error This application requires 
RTE_MBUF_SCATTER_GATHER to be enabled)
examples/ip_pipeline/Makefile:ifeq ($(CONFIG_RTE_MBUF_SCATTER_GATHER),y)
