This patch is needed for a newly branched version of OVS 2.5.90 which implements an updated version of NSH (Network Service Headers). Yi yang from Intel implemented the OVS changes and also created patches for each of the affected projects (Openflow, SFC, Netvirt, GBP). The Openflow plugin API changes are due to OVS API changes related to NSH.

Yi Yang also created patches for the SFC, Netvirt, and GBO projects to use the changes in the Openflow plugin API. I built a custom distro with the below patches and deployed it in OPNFV, and tested it worked there. Upon success, Sam Hague (Netvirt) and myself (SFC) +1'd the Openflow plugin patch. We didnt test GBP in OPNFV, but I am working with them now to test it in a GBP-SFC demo.

Here are all the patches, and bugs that I created for this API Freeze Waiver.
