[ovs-dev] [PATCH] ovs-ctl.in: Don't save flows if the daemons are not running.

[Gurucharan Shetty]

When a 'ovs-ctl restart' is executed and the userspace daemons
like ovsdb-server and ovs-vswitchd are not running, attempt to
save flows can wait forever. This also results in the daemons
from not getting started.
