Removing massive number of no index follow page that are not crawled
Personally I don't agree with setting internal filter URLs to nofollow. I set noindex as you have done and add the filter attributes to the Search Console > Crawl > URL Parameters. For the option "Which URLs with this parameter should Googlebot crawl?" you can set "No URLs" (if the filters are uniform throughout the site). "No URLs: Googlebot won't crawl any URLs containing this parameter. This is useful if your site uses many parameters to filter content. For example, telling Googlebot not to crawl URLs with less significant parameters such as pricefromand priceto (likehttp://www.examples.com/search?category=shoe&brand=nike&color=red&size=5&pricefrom=10&priceto=1000) can prevent the unnecessary crawling of content already available from a page without those parameters (likehttp://www.examples.com/search?category=shoe&brand=nike&color=red&size=5)"

Mobile friendly - Sub domain after responsive?
To make it a little less of a coin toss, if the responsive site is delivering an even better user experience than the mobile website, redirecting the subdomain could be a benefit. You'd want to have solid split testing data from uniform groups of users, but if the directions point to responsive over m.website.com it could make since to go with the responsive site as the sole experience.
