In order to allow handlers directly read upcalls from datapath,
we need to support per-handler netlink socket for each vport in
datapath. This commit makes this happen. Also, it is guaranteed
to be backward compatible with previous branch.

Flow SET can accept an empty set of actions, with the intended
semantics of leaving existing actions unmodified. This seems to have
been brokin after OVS 1.7, as we have assigned the flow's actions
pointer to NULL in this case, but we never check for the NULL pointer
later on. This patch restores the intended behavior and documents it
in the include/linux/openvswitch.h.

tcp_flags=flags/mask
Bitwise match on TCP flags. The flags and mask are 16-bit num‐
bers written in decimal or in hexadecimal prefixed by 0x. Each
1-bit in mask requires that the corresponding bit in port must
match. Each 0-bit in mask causes the corresponding bit to be
ignored.
TCP protocol currently defines 9 flag bits, and additional 3
bits are reserved (must be transmitted as zero), see RFCs 793,
3168, and 3540. The flag bits are, numbering from the least
significant bit:
0: FIN No more data from sender.
1: SYN Synchronize sequence numbers.
2: RST Reset the connection.
3: PSH Push function.
4: ACK Acknowledgement field significant.
5: URG Urgent pointer field significant.
6: ECE ECN Echo.
7: CWR Congestion Windows Reduced.
8: NS Nonce Sum.
9-11: Reserved.
12-15: Not matchable, must be zero.

This patch adds support for rewriting SCTP src,dst ports similar to the
functionality already available for TCP/UDP.
Rewriting SCTP ports is expensive due to double-recalculation of the
SCTP checksums; this is performed to ensure that packets traversing OVS
with invalid checksums will continue to the destination with any
checksum corruption intact.

Add wildcarded flow support in kernel datapath.
Wildcarded flow can improve OVS flow set up performance by avoid sending
matching new flows to the user space program. The exact performance boost
will largely dependent on wildcarded flow hit rate.
In case all new flows hits wildcard flows, the flow set up rate is
within 5% of that of linux bridge module.
Pravin has made significant contributions to this patch. Including API
clean ups and bug fixes.
