aa310701e7 openvswitch: Add gre tunnel support.
Add gre vport implementation.  Most of gre protocol processing
is pushed to gre module. It make use of gre demultiplexer
therefore it can co-exist with linux device based gre tunnels.

a3e82996a8 openvswitch: Optimize flow key match for non tunnel flows.
Following patch adds start offset for sw_flow-key, so that we can
skip tunneling information in key for non-tunnel flows.

ffe3f43217 openvswitch: Expand action buffer size.
MAX_ACTIONS_BUFSIZE limits action list size, set tunnel action
needs extra space on action list, for now increase max actions list limit.

74f84a5726 openvswitch: Copy individual actions.
Rather than validating actions and then copying all actiaons
in one block, following patch does same operation in single pass.
This validate and copy action one by one. This is required for
ovs tunneling patch.

This patch does not change any functionality.

c3ff8cfe3e openvswitch: Refine Netlink message size calculation and kill FLOW_BUFSIZE
Kills the FLOW_BUFSIZE constant which needs to be calculated manually
and replaces it with key_attr_size() based on nla_total_size().
Calculates the size of datapath messages instead of relying on
NLMSG_DEFAULT_SIZE and moves the existing message size calculations
into own functions for clarity.

b48b63a1f6 Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net
Conflicts:
	net/netfilter/nfnetlink_log.c
	net/netfilter/xt_LOG.c

Rather easy conflict resolution, the 'net' tree had bug fixes to make
sure we checked if a socket is a time-wait one or not and elide the
logging code if so.

Whereas on the 'net-next' side we are calculating the UID and GID from
the creds using different interfaces due to the user namespace changes
from Eric Biederman.

c303aa94cd openvswitch: Fix FLOW_BUFSIZE definition.
The vlan encapsulation fields in the maximum flow defintion were
never updated when the representation changed before upstreaming.
In theory this could cause a kernel panic when a maximum length
flow is used.  In practice this has never happened (to my knowledge)
because skb allocations are padded out to a cache line so you would
need the right combination of flow and packet being sent to userspace.

ccb1352e76 net: Add Open vSwitch kernel components.
Open vSwitch is a multilayer Ethernet switch targeted at virtualized
environments.  In addition to supporting a variety of features
expected in a traditional hardware switch, it enables fine-grained
programmatic extension and flow-based control of the network.
This control is useful in a wide variety of applications but is
particularly important in multi-server virtualization deployments,
which are often characterized by highly dynamic endpoints and the need
to maintain logical abstractions for multiple tenants.

The Open vSwitch datapath provides an in-kernel fast path for packet
forwarding.  It is complemented by a userspace daemon, ovs-vswitchd,
which is able to accept configuration from a variety of sources and
translate it into packet processing rules.

See http://openvswitch.org for more information and userspace
utilities.
