  porting: Add fixes to support kernel 4.15.x

This patch enables OVS kernel module to run on kernel 4.15.x.
Two conntrack-related tests failed:
 - conntrack - multiple zones, local
 - conntrack - multi-stage pipeline, local
This might be due to conntrack policy changes for packets coming
from local ports on kernel 4.15. More survey will be done later.
