This patch adds cache usage statistics to the output:

$ ovs-dpctl show
system@ovs-system:
  lookups: hit:24 missed:71 lost:0
  flows: 0
  masks: hit:334 total:0 hit/pkt:3.52
  cache: hit:4 hit rate:4.21%
  port 0: ovs-system (internal)
  port 1: genev_sys_6081 (geneve: packet_type=ptap)
  port 2: br-int (internal)
  port 3: br-ex (internal)
  port 4: eth2
  port 5: sw1p1 (internal)
  port 6: sw0p4 (internal)

Hi, Eelco.  Sorry for this taking so long.

The patch looks good to me, just one small nit below.

The space in "hit rate" doesn't look right.   All the other things
are written as a single word followed by a semicolon and a number,
so maybe this should be a single word too.  E.g.:

   cache: hit:4 hit-rate:4.21%

What do you think?   I can make this change before applying a patch.

Best regards, Ilya Maximets.

The change looks fine! Please make the change before applying.
