There are some checkpatch[1] warning, but those are safe to ignore. 

Adrien, one thing which is missing is a documentation update for mlx5 doc on the new dependency of libmnl. 
Just like rdma-core: how to get it, how to install it, version required..

I won't postpone the series acceptance due to this (since I want to avoid big changes after the rc2), but we must have such doc before 18.08 release. 

Series applied to next-net-mlx, thanks!
