This directory needs to be created by the package manager
because ovs-ctl is being invoked from SElinux openvswitch
domain that does not have enough privileges to create
directories under /etc on its own.

Without this patch Open vSwitch is not able to start under
SElinux enforcing mode (which is default on CentOS by the way).
