Changes for in kernel generated netlink attribute parsing functions
require our out of tree driver to use the deprecated forms of those
functions.  Otherwise the message parsing will return -EINVAL because
NLA_F_NESTED is not set in the nla_type field.

Misplaced the cover letter but in any case passes travis here:
https://travis-ci.org/gvrose8192/ovs-experimental/builds/654524798

And passes check-kmod without any regressions on a couple of systems I 
checked.
