The rpm build instructions did not clarify what spec files were to be
used for RHEL 7 and its derivatives. Clarify that you're actually
supposed to use the spec files called "fedora" for RHEL 7 right now.
Update references to Fedora versions to reflect the current release
(23), as neither 16 or 17 are supported releases anymore.

I think openvswitch-kmod-fedora has been an orphan for a long time. I
think that is because the users in fedora get a more upto date kernel
module from Linux kernel itself. It probably still builds, but it will
likely not be picked up with modprobe because there is till the native
kernel module.
It seems worth keeping for testing WIP features, at least.
It doesn't build for me, though. The error I get is that it's trying to
create a directory outside of the $RPM_BUILD_ROOT during "make
modules_install".
I'm building using:
$ rpmbuild -bb -D "kversion `uname -r`" rhel/openvswitch-kmod-fedora.spec
...
mkdir: cannot create directory
'/lib/modules/4.3.3-300.fc23.x86_64/extra': Permission denied
I was looking at how to pass $RPM_BUILD_ROOT into there properly, but I
got distracted before I got it to work.
I just posted another patch which makes it build on Fedora 23 for me, at
least.
Kmod builds and installs perfectly on Centos7 using Fedora spec without
patch.
