I'm actually working on a series which moves dpif-linux away from
rtnetlink-link altogether.  That series needs this run actually in the
dpif-linux code.  That said, it probably make sense to move the run
once business into rtnetlink directly so the other users benefit.
I'll send out a revised patch.
