[ovs-dev] [PATCH 1/2] ovs-ofctl: Print the offending flow on error when parsing from a file.

Andrew Evans aevans at nicira.com

When an error is encountered while parsing flows from a file, ovs-ofctl doesn't
print the flow it can't parse, so it's not always obvious which flow is causing
the error. Print the flow before the error message to make it clear.
