cfg: Reimplement vswitchd config file locking reliably.
The lock file protocol used until now for the vswitchd configuration file
was intended for use with serial devices that are not opened very often
and stay open for a relatively long time (typically minutes or hours).
This protocol contains possible (though probably unimportant) races, e.g.
between one locker reading the contents of the lock file and another
writing to it; if the reader saw a write of a partial PID then it could
think that an nonexistent process owned it and thereby delete it. It is
probably possible to fix this race, by writing to a temporary file
and link()ing the temporary file to the lock file.
Also, cfg_unlock() had a race in its unlock order: the lock file should be
unlinked before it is closed; otherwise another process could race in and
unlink and replace the lock file, and then when the unlocking process
resumes it would unlink the other process's still-active lock file.
But the serial lock file protocol has other problems for our purposes, at
least:
* It is rather complicated, which makes it more difficult to implement
in other languages (such as Python, which the interface-reconfigure
script should be doing itself).
* There is no way to wait for the lock to become available without
polling.
This commit replaces the serial lock file protocol by one that does not
have any of these shortcomings. The primary difference is that it uses a
single long-lived lock file, to which the kernel's blocking F_SETLKW fcntl
operation can be applied, instead of a series of short-lived lock files,
for which there is no way to wait.

datapath: Prevent bridge module from loading along with openvswitch.
For some time, the openvswitch kernel module has checked whether the
bridge module is loaded and refused to start if so. However, the bridge
module doesn't check whether the openvswitch module is loaded, so it can
end up loaded at the same time if something goes wrong, and then generally
the system OOPSes sooner or later.
This commit adds proper mutual exclusion, by registering an LLC SAP for
the protocol used by spanning tree. This is the first thing that the
bridge module does at initialization time also, and since there can only
be one registration for a given protocol this prevents both modules from
being loaded at the same time.

debug kernel that we built based on Citrix's 5.5.0-beta1 kernel.

vswitch: Give up hope that the config file delimiter will be changed.
This code originally assumed that it could iterate over all the subsections
of "port" in the configuration file to obtain the names of network devices,
but this didn't work because "." is both the configuration file section
delimiter and a valid (and fairly common) character in network device
names. So it was changed to use a different technique with the hope that
the original code could be restored when the configuration file syntax was
changed.
Now we've agreed that the configuration file syntax is not going to change
before we change to a different configuration model entirely, so this
commit deletes the original code (which was #if'd out, not deleted).
Another reason to do this is to kill off some warnings due to unused
functions and variables.

datapath: Fix VLAN-related kernel OOPS on XenServer.
In deleting internal ports (other than the local port) we were failing to
call dp_del_if_hook even though we had called dp_add_if_hook when we added
it. This prevented the sysfs kobject from being released and caused the
wrong address to be passed to kfree. The former could cause random
memory corruption; the latter may be benign since the address was still in
the same slab object.

datapath: Add support for "internal" ports similar to the local port.
The datapath has supported a simulated "local port" for a long time, but it
has never been possible to create additional ports with the same
characteristics. One way to do this is using the veth driver, but this is
somewhat awkward, since there is no desire to create a pair of devices;
one suffices.
The immediate purpose for this feature is to allow an IP address to be put
on both a physical interface and a tagged VLAN attached to that interface
on Xen.

Don't print warning about removing policy on startup.
The policing code attempts to delete any traffic control configuration on

didn't have any traffic control configuration, this would cause it to

so those no longer print.

Fix return value call on send() when sending NetFlow messages.
When sending NetFlow messages, we use the send() call, but were checking
the wrong return value. It would report an error when any non-zero
value was returned. The send() call returns the number of bytes sent or
-1 on error. Thus, whenever a NetFlow message was sent, it would
generate an error message. Now, we only log a message when a value of
-1 is returned. (Bug #1166)
