I certainly didn't take it that way regardless of the wording. I'm
keenly aware of the short leash you have Mellanox (and by extension
myself) on. I reviewed the merge in detail, enough to satisfy myself
that it was easy, correct, and that the code itself made the merge
obvious (such as the comment that flow table entries need to be last in
the lists in order to support priority transitions, which fairly handily
explained what needed to happen in the merge).
