Following commit (''netlink: Do not enforce alignment of last Netlink attribute''), signal the ability to receive unaligned Netlink messages to the datapath to enable utilization of zerocopy optimizations.
Opening a datapath is now done by issueing a OVS_DP_CMD_SET in order to overwrite previously set user features.
