compat: Add compat fix for old kernels
In kernels older than 4.8, struct tcf_t didn't have the firstuse.
If openvswitch is compiled with the compat pkt_cls.h then there is
a struct size mismatch between openvswitch and the kernel which cause
parsing netlink actions to fail.
After this commit parsing the netlink actions pass even if compiled with
the compat pkt_cls.h.
