I dropped these since they are not needed by this series when using a
union.

Revised this one, as noted

I put the above in a branch and can apply them if you ack my revisions..

I dropped these two (they are linked), need comments addressed and
resent.

I put these in a branch also and can apply them, but I need the first
two patches in the mlx5 core branch first please, thanks.

Since this requires so many core patches I think I prefer to merge the
mlx core branch then apply rather merge a branch.
