Thanks for the clarification Steve.  That should be sufficient assuming 
that Anton's work is owned by Cavium.

As for the patch itself, I'll leave it to you for a deeper review since 
you're the better judge for tx2 performance.  It would still be nice to 
see the results from memcpy-walk and not just memcpy-large, assuming 
that's what Anton tested with.

The patch needs a ChangeLog too.

Thanks,
Siddhesh
