Over the time datapath.c and flow.c has became pretty large files.
Following patch restructures functionality of component into three
different components:
flow.c: contains flow extract.
flow_netlink.c: netlink flow api.
flow_table.c: flow table api.
This patch restructures code without changing logic.

Add gre vport implementation. Most of gre protocol processing
is pushed to gre module. It make use of gre demultiplexer
therefore it can co-exist with linux device based gre tunnels.

Open vSwitch is a multilayer Ethernet switch targeted at virtualized
environments. In addition to supporting a variety of features
expected in a traditional hardware switch, it enables fine-grained
programmatic extension and flow-based control of the network.
This control is useful in a wide variety of applications but is
particularly important in multi-server virtualization deployments,
which are often characterized by highly dynamic endpoints and the need
to maintain logical abstractions for multiple tenants.
The Open vSwitch datapath provides an in-kernel fast path for packet
forwarding. It is complemented by a userspace daemon, ovs-vswitchd,
which is able to accept configuration from a variety of sources and
translate it into packet processing rules.
See http://openvswitch.org for more information and userspace
utilities.
