Update OVS package to include the following two fixes: commit 3282e5118707efc3ba07f7bd17f5f82fe931a732 Author: Ben Pfaff <blp> Date: Sun Jan 11 13:45:36 2015 -0800 dpif-linux: Drop oversized packets instead of assert-failing. A packet sent to a Netlink datapath has to fit within a Netlink attribute. Until now, this was only checked in an assertion inside the Netlink code, which meant that trying to send a too-large packet (approximate 64 kB or larger) would assert-fail. It's better to just drop those packets, which this commit does.

Until now the Netlink code has considered an attribute to exceed the maximum length if the *padded* size of the attribute exceeds 65535 bytes. For example, an attribute with a 65529-byte payload, together with 4-byte header and 3 bytes of padding, takes up 65536 bytes and therefore the existing code rejected it. However, the restriction on Netlink attribute sizes is to ensure that the length fits in the 16-bit nla_len field. This field includes the 4-byte header but not the padding, so a 65529-byte payload is acceptable because, with the header but not the padding, it comes to only 65533 bytes. Thus, this commit relaxes the restriction on Netlink attribute sizes by omitting padding from size checks. It also changes one piece of code that inlined a size check to use the central function nl_attr_oversized(). This change should fix an assertion failure when OVS userspace passes a maximum-size (65529+ byte) packet back to the kernel.
