[ovs-dev] [GIT net-next] Open vSwitch

[Jesse Gross]

Open vSwitch changes for net-next/3.14. Highlights are:
 * Performance improvements in the mechanism to get packets to userspace
   using memory mapped netlink and skb zero copy where appropriate.
 * Per-cpu flow stats in situations where flows are likely to be shared
   across CPUs. Standard flow stats are used in other situations to save
   memory and allocation time.
 * A handful of code cleanups and rationalization.
