[Devel] [PATCH RH8] net: openvswitch: add capability to specify ifindex of new links

[Andrey Zhadchenko]

Openvswitch creates several net devices, but unlike rtnetlink API there is
no option to specify ifindex for link. This is crucial for criu during
restore stage.
Use ovs_header->dp_ifindex during OVS_DP_CMD_NEW as desired ifindex.
Use OVS_VPORT_ATTR_IFINDEX during OVS_VPORT_CMD_NEW to specify new netdev
ifindex. Both values were not relevant for corresponding requests, so
existing software won't mess with it.
