Also, it would be nice to have a simple test function in
app/test/test_mbuf.c. For instance, you could update
test_one_pktmbuf() to take a mbuf pointer as a parameter and remove
the mbuf allocation from the function. Then it could be called with
a mbuf allocated with rte_pktmbuf_alloc() (like before) and with
all the mbufs of rte_pktmbuf_alloc_bulk().

Don't quite get you. Is it that we write two cases, one case allocate
mbuf through rte_pktmbuf_alloc_bulk and one use rte_pktmbuf_alloc? It is
good to have. 

Yes, something like:

test_one_pktmbuf(struct rte_mbuf *m)
{
	/* same as before without the allocation/free */
}

test_pkt_mbuf(void)
{
	m = rte_pktmbuf_alloc(pool);
	test_one_pktmbuf(m);
	rte_pktmbuf_free(m);

	ret = rte_pktmbuf_alloc_bulk(pool, mtab, BULK_CNT)
	for (i = 0; i < BULK_CNT; i++) {
		m = mtab[i];
		test_one_pktmbuf(m);
		rte_pktmbuf_free(m);
	}
}

I could do this after this patch.

Yes, please.
