openvswitch.spec: Remove dependency with openvswitch-kmod.

Upstream Linux has OVS kernel module that includes most (not all) of

So, it is okay to relax the requirement for OVS userspace package
to depend on openvswitch-kmod package.

lib/match: Do not format undefined fields.

Add function flow_wildcards_init_for_packet() that can be used to set
sensible wildcards when megaflows are disabled.  Before this, we set
all the mask bits to ones, which caused printing tunnel, mpls, and/or
transport port fields even for packets for which it makes no sense.

This has the side effect of generating different megaflow masks for
different packet types, so there will be more than one kind of mask in
the datapath classifier.  This should not make practical difference,
as megaflows should not be disabled when performance is important.

lib/cmap: Return number of nodes from functions modifying the cmap.

We already update the count field as the last step of these functions,
so returning the current count is very cheap.  Callers that care about
the count become a bit more efficient, as they avoid extra
non-inlineable function call.

tests/test-cmap: Balance benchmarks between cmap and hmap.

The test cases have been carefully crafted so that we do the same
amount of "overhead" operations in each case.  Earlier, with no
mutations, the number of random number generations was different for
hmap and cmap test cases.  hmap test was also missing an ignore() call.
Now the numbers look like this:

$ tests/ovstest test-cmap benchmark 2000000 8 0
Benchmarking with n=2000000, 8 threads, 0.00% mutations:
cmap insert:    597 ms
cmap iterate:    65 ms
cmap search:    299 ms
cmap destroy:   251 ms

hmap insert:    243 ms
hmap iterate:   201 ms
hmap search:    299 ms
hmap destroy:   202 ms

So it seems search on cmap can be as fast as on hmap in the
single-threaded case.

lib/cmap: Use non-atomic access to hash.

We use the 'counter' as a "lock" providing acquire-release
semantics.  Therefore we can use normal, non-atomic access to the
memory accesses between the atomic accesses to 'counter'.  The
cmap_node.next needs to be RCU, so that can not be changed.

For the writer this is straightforward, as we first acquire-read the
counter and after all the changes we release-store the counter.  For
the reader this is a bit more complex, as we need to make sure the
last counter read is not reordered with the preceding read operations
on the bucket contents.

Also rearrange code to benefit from the fact that hash values are
unique in any bucket.

This patch seems to make cmap_insert() a bit faster.

lib/cmap: cmap_find_batch().

Batching the cmap find improves the memory behavior with large cmaps
and can make searches twice as fast:

$ tests/ovstest test-cmap benchmark 2000000 8 0.1 16
Benchmarking with n=2000000, 8 threads, 0.10% mutations, batch size 16:
cmap insert:    533 ms
cmap iterate:    57 ms
batch search:   146 ms
cmap destroy:   233 ms

cmap insert:    552 ms
cmap iterate:    56 ms
cmap search:    299 ms
cmap destroy:   229 ms

hmap insert:    222 ms
hmap iterate:   198 ms
hmap search:   2061 ms
hmap destroy:   209 ms

Batch size 1 has small performance penalty, but all other batch sizes
are faster than non-batched cmap_find().  The batch size 16 was
experimentally found better than 8 or 32, so now
classifier_lookup_miniflow_batch() performs the cmap find operations
in batches of 16.

datapath-windows: Incorrect assumption of the IRQL

Acquiring a spin lock raises the IRQL to DISPATCH_LEVEL. But
in many places of the code, while holding a spin lock, there
are useless checks for the current IRQL against DISPATCH_LEVEL.
Also, the dispatch flag is not correctly set when calling
NdisAcquireRWLockXXX() functions, which causes an extra check
of the current IRQL.

OvsDpInterfaceExt.h: add support for netlink family for netdev

In this patch, we define netlink family, attributes and commands
for query the 'network device' information of VPORTs, such as
MTU, Link status, etc.

I considered adding the netdev command to the OVS_WIN_CONTROL_FAMILY
itself, but the netdev attributes are not compatible with the existing
attributes for the events. I also considered adding new attributes to
the VPORT family, but we'll have to extend the standard datapath
interface for that.

In this patch, we fix the definition of 'OVS_WIN_CONTROL_ATTR_MAX' as
well.
