In the current implement when comparing two flow keys, we will return
result after comparing the whole key from start to end.

In our optimization, we will return result in the first none-zero
comparison, then we will improve the flow table looking up efficiency.

Silence suspicious RCU usage warning in ovs_flow_tbl_masks_cache_resize()
by replacing rcu_dereference() with rcu_dereference_ovsl().

In addition, when creating a new datapath, make sure it's configured under
the ovs_lock.

<title>net: openvswitch: fix to make sure flow_lookup() is not preempted</title>

The flow_lookup() function uses per CPU variables, which must be called
with BH disabled. However, this is fine in the general NAPI use case
where the local BH is disabled. But, it's also called from the netlink
context. The below patch makes sure that even in the netlink path, the
BH is disabled.

In addition, u64_stats_update_begin() requires a lock to ensure one writer
which is not ensured here. Making it per-CPU and disabling NAPI (softirq)
ensures that there is always only one writer.

keep_flows was introduced by [1], which used as flag to delete flows or not.
When rehashing or expanding the table instance, we will not flush the flows.
Now don't use it anymore, remove it.

Decrease table-&gt;count and ufid_count unconditionally,
because we only don't use count or ufid_count to count
when flushing the flows. To simplify the codes, we
remove the "count" argument of table_instance_flow_free.

To avoid a bug when deleting flows in the future, add
WARN_ON in flush flows function.

To avoid some issues, for example RCU usage warning and double free,
we should flush the flows under ovs_lock. This patch refactors
table_instance_destroy and introduces table_instance_flow_flush
which can be invoked by __dp_destroy or ovs_flow_tbl_flush.

ovs_flow_tbl_destroy always is called from RCU callback
or error path. It is no need to check if rcu_read_lock
or lockdep_ovsl_is_held was held.

ovs_dp_cmd_fill_info always is called with ovs_mutex,
So use the rcu_dereference_ovsl instead of rcu_dereference
in ovs_flow_tbl_masks_cache_size.
