[PATCH net-next 1/6] openvswitch: Specify the minimal length of OVS_PACKET_ATTR_PACKET in the policy

From: Thomas Graf <tgraf@suug.ch>
Date: 2013-03-29 13:46:58
Subsystem: networking [general], openvswitch, the rest · Maintainers: "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Aaron Conole, Eelco Chaudron, Ilya Maximets, Linus Torvalds

Specifying the minimal length in the policy makes it reuseable
and documents the interface.
