Stefan,
   Understand your concern. But majority of the patches are critical fixes (for upcoming hardware releases). The driver will not even load those for controllers without these. I really wanted to cherry pick them.
But the dependencies of these patches on the others was too much and didn't have a choice but to get others too. Did try to minimize the list.

Thanks,
Sarvesh
