net: Add Open vSwitch kernel components. Open vSwitch is a multilayer Ethernet switch targeted at virtualized environments. In addition to supporting a variety of features expected in a traditional hardware switch, it enables fine-grained programmatic extension and flow-based control of the network. This control is useful in a wide variety of applications but is particularly important in multi-server virtualization deployments, which are often characterized by highly dynamic endpoints and the need to maintain logical abstractions for multiple tenants. The Open vSwitch datapath provides an in-kernel fast path for packet forwarding. It is complemented by a userspace daemon, ovs-vswitchd, which is able to accept configuration from a variety of sources and translate it into packet processing rules. See http://openvswitch.org for more information and userspace utilities. Signed-off-by: Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com>

openvswitch: Fix multipart datapath dumps. The logic to split up the list of datapaths into multiple Netlink messages was simply wrong, causing the list to be terminated after the first part. Only about the first 50 datapaths would be dumped. This fixes the problem.

openvswitch: Validation of IPv6 set port action uses IPv4 header When the kernel validates set TCP/UDP port actions, it looks at the ports in the existing flow to make sure that the L4 header exists. However, these actions always use the IPv4 version of the struct. Following patch fixes this by checking for flow ip protocol first.

openvswitch: Honor dp_ifindex, when specified, for vport lookup by name. When OVS_VPORT_ATTR_NAME is specified and dp_ifindex is nonzero, the logical behavior would be for the vport name lookup scope to be limited to the specified datapath, but in fact the dp_ifindex value was ignored.
