The next "struct seq" introduced in patch 4 should be useful outside
dpif-netdev; it is a general-purpose synchronization data structure.

Ben Pfaff (5):
  ovs-thread: New function xpthread_setspecific().
  ovs-thread: Add support for globally visible per-thread data.
  ovs-thread: New function ovsthread_id_self()
  seq: New module for race-free, pollable, thread-safe sequence number.
  dpif-netdev: Avoid race in dpif_netdev_port_poll_wait() using seq
    object.
