Jarno Rajahalme 05da5898a9 openvswitch: Add support for OVS_FLOW_ATTR_PROBE.
This new flag is useful for suppressing error logging while probing
for datapath features using flow commands.  For backwards
compatibility reasons the commands are executed normally, but error
logging is suppressed.

Wenyu Zhang 8f0aad6f35 openvswitch: Extend packet attribute for egress tunnel info
OVS vswitch has extended IPFIX exporter to export tunnel headers
to improve network visibility.
To export this information userspace needs to know egress tunnel
for given packet. By extending packet attributes datapath can
export egress tunnel info for given packet. So that userspace
can ask for egress tunnel info in userspace action. This
information is used to build IPFIX data for given flow.

Pravin B Shelar 2fdb957d63 openvswitch: Refactor action alloc and copy api.
There are two separate API to allocate and copy actions list. Anytime
OVS needs to copy action list, it needs to call both functions.
Following patch moves action allocation to copy function to avoid
code duplication.

Simon Horman 25cd9ba0ab openvswitch: Add basic MPLS support to kernel
Allow datapath to recognize and extract MPLS labels into flow keys
and execute actions which push, pop, and set labels on packets.

Based heavily on work by Leo Alterman, Ravi K, Isaku Yamahata and Joe Stringer.

Pravin B Shelar 83c8df26a3 openvswitch: refactor ovs flow extract API.
OVS flow extract is called on packet receive or packet
execute code path.  Following patch defines separate API
for extracting flow-key in packet execute code path.

Jarno Rajahalme 23dabf88ab openvswitch: Remove 5-tuple optimization.
The 5-tuple optimization becomes unnecessary with a later per-NUMA
node stats patch.  Remove it first to make the changes easier to
grasp.

Pravin B Shelar e298e50570 openvswitch: Per cpu flow stats.
With mega flow implementation ovs flow can be shared between
multiple CPUs which makes stats updates highly contended
operation. This patch uses per-CPU stats in cases where a flow
is likely to be shared (if there is a wildcard in the 5-tuple
and therefore likely to be spread by RSS). In other situations,
it uses the current strategy, saving memory and allocation time.

Pravin B Shelar e64457191a openvswitch: Restructure datapath.c and flow.c
Over the time datapath.c and flow.c has became pretty large files.
Following patch restructures functionality of component into three
different components:

flow.c: contains flow extract.
flow_netlink.c: netlink flow api.
flow_table.c: flow table api.

This patch restructures code without changing logic.
