This series patch optimize openvswitch.

Patch 1, 2, 4: Port Pravin B Shelar patches to
linux upstream with little changes.

Patch 5, 6, 7: Optimize the flow looking up and
simplify the flow hash.

The performance test is on Intel Xeon E5-2630 v4.
The test topology is show as below:

+-----------------------------------+
|   +---------------------------+   |
|   | eth0   ovs-switch    eth1 |   | Host0
|   +---------------------------+   |
+-----------------------------------+
      ^                       |
      |                       |
      |                       |
      |                       |
      |                       v
+-----+----+             +----+-----+
| netperf  | Host1       | netserver| Host2
+----------+             +----------+

We use netperf send the 64B frame, and insert 255+ flow-mask:
$ ovs-dpctl add-flow ovs-switch "in_port(1),eth(dst=00:01:00:00:00:00/ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:01),eth_type(0x0800),ipv4(frag=no)" 2
...
$ ovs-dpctl add-flow ovs-switch "in_port(1),eth(dst=00:ff:00:00:00:00/ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff),eth_type(0x0800),ipv4(frag=no)" 2
$ netperf -t UDP_STREAM -H 2.2.2.200 -l 40 -- -m 18

* Without series patch, throughput 8.28Mbps
* With series patch, throughput 46.05Mbps

Tonghao Zhang (7):
  net: openvswitch: add flow-mask cache for performance
  net: openvswitch: convert mask list in mask array
  net: openvswitch: shrink the mask array if necessary
  net: openvswitch: optimize flow mask cache hash collision
  net: openvswitch: optimize flow-mask looking up
  net: openvswitch: simplify the flow_hash
  net: openvswitch: add likely in flow_lookup
