Now, OVS flows on a port.  Strange enough, that was the first RFC
implementation for switchdev/rocker where we hooked into ovs-kernel
module and programmed flows into hw.  We pulled all of that code
because, IIRC, the ovs folks didn't want us hooking into the kernel
module directly.  We dropped the ovs hooks and focused on hooking
kernel's L2/L3.  The device (rocker) didn't really change: OF-DPA
pipeline was used for both.  Might be interesting to try hooking it
again.
