This series of patches proposes the Open vSwitch kernel components for
upstream.  Open vSwitch has existed as a separate project for several
years and we now believe it to be mature enough for inclusion.  The
actual functionality is described more fully in the commit that adds
the kernel code.

The following changes since commit 340e8dc1fb4032b6c8334c9bff20b2aec42ecfd8:

  atm: clip: Remove code commented out since eternity. (2011-12-02 14:27:11 -0500)

are available in the git repository at:
  git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jesse/openvswitch.git for-upstream

Jesse Gross (3):
      genetlink: Add rcu_dereference_genl and genl_dereference.
      ipv6: Add fragment reporting to ipv6_skip_exthdr().

Pravin B Shelar (3):
      genetlink: Add genl_notify()
