[PATCH net] openvswitch: warn about missing first netlink attribute

The first netlink attribute (value 0) must always be defined
as none/unspec.

Because we cannot change an existing UAPI, I add a comment to point the
mistake and avoid to propagate it in a new ovs API in the future.

Ok, I agree, we don't want people cut-and-pasting this kind of thing
and hopefully this comment prevents that.

Applied, thanks.
