Hi. This is a known thing that ovs-dpctl is no longer suitable for dumping
of HW offloaded flows. Please, use 'ovs-appctl dpctl/dump-flows' instead.
There was a patch for documentation in v4 of patch-set:
    https://mail.openvswitch.org/pipermail/ovs-dev/2019-May/359013.html
Here is the relevant thread:
    https://mail.openvswitch.org/pipermail/ovs-dev/2019-May/358985.html

However, I missed updating the NEWS about that change. Will send the patch
for this soon.

Best regards, Ilya Maximets.
