[ovs-dev] [PATCH] ofp-util: Support OFPP_LOCAL in enqueue actions.

[Ethan Jackson]

According to the specification the enqueue action should refer to
"a valid physical port", or OFPP_IN_PORT.  It would be strange to
attach a queueing discipline to the local port, but I see no reason
to restrict it.
