Subject: [PATCH net-next] openvswitch: report features supported by the kernel datapath

Allow the user space to query what features are supported by the openvswitch
module. This will be used to allow or disallow certain configurations and/or
switch between newer and older APIs depending on what the kernel supports.

Two features are reported as supported by this patch: lwtunnel and IPv6
tunneling support. Theoretically, we could merge these two, as any of them
implies the other with this patch applied, but it's better to keep them
separate: kernel 4.3 supports lwtunnels but not IPv6 for ovs, and the
separation of the two flags allows us to backport a version of this patch
to 4.3 should the need arise.

Signed-off-by: Jiri Benc <jbenc@...hat.com>

This is intentionally submitted to net-next. Kernel 4.3 will be fine without
this feature (but despite that, I'd like to keep the two flags separate).
