Oh wait, OVS has been merged into Linux 3.11? That's great news. Since 
older kernels don't exist anymore in Debian/unstable, will the 
openvswitch-datapath-* packages be removed soon?

If not, you could consider adding a DKMS exception that prevents 
compilation with 3.11 with a more descriptive reason.
