Thank you!

netdev_get_status() should return EOPNOTSUPP, not ENOTSUP, when the
provider doesn't implement the ->get_status() function.

The comments for netdev_get_status() and the ->get_status() function
should mention what kinds of information might be included.  They should
probably point to ovs-vswitchd.conf.db(5).  Otherwise anyone looking at
it will have no idea.

In iface_refresh_status() xmalloc() is better than xzalloc() since all
of the elements will be initialized immediately.  Also I'd prefer to see
a helper function here analogous to shash_from_ovs_idl_map() but going
in the opposite direction.

If you update all that then please go ahead and push this.
