Thanks for the revision.
Do you foresee other uses of OVS_KEY_FIELD in the future? As is,
there's a lot of duplication here from the numerous declarations like
struct ovs_key_field_properties ovs_key_nd_extensions_properties[] = {
#define OVS_KEY_FIELD(type, name) {offsetof(struct ovs_key_nd_extensions,
name), sizeof(type)},
OVS_KEY_ND_EXTENSIONS_FIELDS
{0, 0}
#undef OVS_KEY_FIELD
};
If this is the only currently foreseen use, it would be better to have
the code generator just generate the declarations directly instead of
forcing these later duplications.
