In kernels older than 4.8, struct tcf_t didn't have the firstuse.
If openvswitch is compiled with the compat pkt_cls.h then there is
a struct size mismatch between openvswitch and the kernel which cause
parsing netlink actions to fail.
After this commit parsing the netlink actions pass even if compiled with
the compat pkt_cls.h.

Hi Simon,

sorry for the trouble but there is also v3 for this patch.
it uses ac_check_member instead of ac_compile.
is it possible to take v3 which is a lot cleaner?

Thanks,
Roi

Sorry for the mix up,

would it be possible to provide an incremental patch
to upgrade master to v3?
