I mean these userspace patches are necessary to run l3 tunnel port in compat 
mode and dpdk netdev mode. Only jiri's 8 patches backport is not enough. One 
feasible way is we can rebase Jan's patches on top of this patch set.

I have primarily expressed concern about missing kernel patch backports due to 
inconsistent backporting order. If Jan's series is decoupled and still builds 
OK, tests OK, passes review, etc by itself then I'm not sure I understand the 
dependency on the kernel patches.
