Your hesitation is understandable. The level of support expected is probably 
different in our individual perceptions. I would also like to clear up a few 
things because there maybe some miscommunication.

The first step in supporting DPDK on Power, the plan was to support
Mellanox adapters only. This is with MLNX_OFED. That implies the
Mellanox drivers and PMD will come from Mellanox and not Canonical.
Hopefully that explains the rationale for the request.

However, given the hesitation to turn on OVS-DPDK (in the main archive)
and the need for an FFE etc, etc, would make this plan impractical.

For 16.10 let us go with plan B) as you suggest. We will get involved
early in the process for 17.04 and that should ease things. Thanks you
for your support!
