First commit delays lflow uploads to OVS until all monitored updates come to the controller. This is done by monitor condition sequence number comparison vs expected sequence number. A lflow update is released when current number becomes equal to the expected number. Theoretically this should work for any number of monitored updates. Practically, for today, there are exactly 3 flow updates if monitor-all=false and 1 update if monitor-all=true.
You can still use the wait-before-clear != 0 option if needed, this will disable automated delay. Since wait-before-clear seems to be fully replaced with the first commit you may want to remove wait-before-clear functionality and this is done with the second commit.
