xenserver: Split kernel/userspace into separate RPMs for supplemental packs.

XenServer has the concept of a "supplemental pack", which is just a collection
of RPMs rolled into an ISO image for installation as a unit, either during
XenServer installation or later as an update.

The script used to build supplemental packs requires that a single RPM not mix
kernel and userspace components. It also enforces a particular naming scheme
for kernel module RPMs. This commit modifies the OVS RPM spec file to create
separate RPMs in accordance with these conventions.

In an attempt to ensure that the userspace and kernel module packages are both
present and compatible, the kernel package provides a fictitious capability,
openvswitch_mod.ko.0, and the userspace package requires that capability. If a
future change breaks backward compatibility between userspace and kernel, we'll
increment the numeric suffix, preventing mismatched installs.

isn't necessarily all-zeros.  This commit initializes it properly before
passing it along to execute_actions().

The most common problem caused by failing to initialize the ovs_skb_cb
properly was that on Linux 2.6.26 and earlier, where Open vSwitch keeps
its own vlan_tci field inside ovs_skb_cb, the first packet of a flow would
get sent out tagged with a random VLAN (usually 0x0001 or 0xffff in our
testing).  This commit should fix that problem.

Another likely problem would be for turning on sFlow to randomly panic the
kernel.  That problem would not be kernel version dependent.  We haven't
been testing sFlow so we haven't noticed this problem.

Make upgrade and erase cases both work correctly by simply checking whether any
of the files ever replaced in any OVS version are dangling symlinks, and if so,

upgrade case, if the newly-installed version of OVS lacks any of the scripts in
the previous version, those will be reverted. In the erase case, none of the
OVS replacements will exist, so they will all be dangling symlinks and will all
be reverted.

Furthermore, replace any dangling symlink from /usr/sbin/xen-bugtool to the

xenserver: Clean up /usr/sbin/brctl dangling symlink.

Commit 54f16a10 removed Open vSwitch's /usr/sbin/brctl replacement for
XenServer, but because the RPM doesn't restore the original files on upgrade,
an upgrade leaves /usr/sbin/brctl a broken symlink to the removed
/usr/share/openvswitch/scripts/brctl.

This commit adds a one-time cleanup to restore the original XenServer-supplied
/usr/sbin/brctl. It also changes the RPM to restore all the replaced files with
their XenServer originals at post-uninstall time during an upgrade transaction,
just as uninstall has done up to now. This should prevent the same problem in

moved from an enum to a bit mask in this commit.  The main reason
to do this is to allow a link to be concurrently expired and
defaulted.  With this commit, if a link enters an expired state,
but has never had its partner information update, it will properly
set the defaulted flag in its LACP messages.

vswitchd: Tweak LACP values.

Hardware sets the default LACP partner information to 0 so this
commit follows.  The collector delay is a more interesting
case.  Hardware sets it to 32768 and Linux sets it to 0.  The
collector delay relates to a part of the LACP protocol which we
don't implement so we follow Linux in this case.

Debian.  Also, store the schema version in the database.

tunneling: Always use skb->len for PMTUD.

Currently IPv4 uses the length of the packet in the IP header
and IPv6 uses actual length of the packet for path MTU discovery.
This changes both to use the length of the packet to be consistent
with each other and the the Linux IP stack and also to match what
actually causes fragmentation.
