Ok, I applied this, but two things:

1) You owe Cong Wang an explanation, a real detailed one, about the L2
   vs L3 design of this feature.  I did not see you address his feedback,
   but if you did I apologize.

2) Because the MPLS changes went in first, TCA_ID_CT ended up in a
   different spot in the enumeration and therefore the value is
   different.

Thanks.
